lyrics

Found a letter in my journal
From St Martin’s Press
Said they really liked my novel
It was someone saying “yes”
Don’t remember that I got it
Don’t remember it at all
Then it came screaming back to me
Like a flaming fireball

You took it all away
My one last shot
Never had my heyday
It was all I got
This is how I would repay
The life I bought
My one last shot

You said we had a deal
For my transgression
Tit for tat and tat for tit
Or some kind of expression
I tried to say sorry
But it was not enough
You would never forgive me
You stood pretty tough

You rarely get a shot
Only happens now and then
And if you don’t take it
Well it may never come again
This has been my story
This is how it went for me
And I can only dream of a life
Of a different history
