Tokyo Police Club

Ready To Win

I fucked up today, I fucked up before

I fucked up so much I can't keep track anymore

I fucked up on girls, I fucked up this song

I fucked up on my sister, my dad and my mom

I fucked up on everyone, I fucked up on me

I fucked up with money and man nothing is free

I fucked up on letterman, I fucked up on stage

I fucked up on time and I fucked up too late

But now I am ready to win

I stand on a river, I stand on a stage

Hoping for glory, or maybe today

Cause it's all a mistake and a beautiful mess

Like your next door neighbor when you saw him undress

And I'll do it forever, do nothing but fail

A student of error who can only prevail

Cause learning is trying and trying is hard

When it feels like falling's going to tear you apart

But now I am ready to win

Yeah now I am ready

So turn on the house lights, turn to your left

Shake hands with someone that you'll probably forget

And tell them they're great, tell them they're splendid

No matter how all of their fuckups have ended

Tell them they're free from whatever happened

From all of the haters who need someone to slap them

Just go and fuck up, fuck up, fucking up

Nothing but fucking up, never e-fucking-nough

And then you'll be strong, and then you'll be fearless

Cause you've done it all, and your tear ducts are tearless

And then you'll remember there's a fire in your heart

And a dream in your head, and permission to start

And from out of the silence you will hear your voice

Like a big fucking siren and you won't have a choice

And you will stand up, throw caution to the wind

And you will scream out that you are ready to win

Are you ready, ready to win

Cause everyone's weak and everyone's strong

And everyone's smart but usually wrong

And Rome wasn't built out of fucking cliché

And I love you all in the best fucking way

Fuck up like a pro, fuck up like a saint

Fuck up for the terrified people in lane

Cause the good things are hard and the hard things again

You know I'd fuck up for you if I could

But now you are ready to win

And now you are ready to win

Now I am ready
