Consolation Prize Lyrics by StarterKit

Starter Kit

2000

[Verse 1]
I couldn't ask for more than this
The waiting’s over and I'm off the mailing list
Of people to annoy
Target-market unemployed
Sure I'll wear a tie if you insist

[Verse 2]
I can’t expect to be fulfilled
I'm only doing what you say to pay the bills
Until I bottom out
Could be any minute now
Biting through my tongue and holding still

[Chorus]
I can't be satisfied with a consolation prize
Can't afford to let another day go by

[Pre-Chorus]
And here I am again
Checking out and clocking in
Making sure my bargain shoes are tied

[Chorus]
I can't be satisfied with a consolation prize
Can't afford to let another day go by

[Bridge]
Stuck in second place
Couldn't tell you why
Or what is keeping me awakе half the time
When I should takе my own advice

[Verse 3]
I put it off for way too long
And didn't want to know if anything was wrong
Someone check my pulse
I think I’m starting to convulse
