lyrics

Let's cut to chase:
with all their expectations on me
I pulled up lame.
So now who'll finish up what is started?
Cut to chase...
Thought opportunity had knocked me off my feet?
Well here I stand still smiling, sparkling...

If they need to place blame now, it's me they can blame.

Let's cut to chase:
you didn't think I had it in me.
I'll make that change.
My shadow, a comet's tail: bright,
Cut to chase...
With all their expectations on me
I pulled up lame.
So now I'll finish up what is started.

If they need to place blame now, it's me they can blame.

I am always wide awake.
Unafraid to drop dead weight...

I am always wide awake.
Unafraid to cut to chase.
