I don't want to be second best, don't want to stand in line, don't want to fall behind.
Don't want to get caught out, don't want to do that.
Oh, and the lesson I must learn is that I've got to wait my turn.
Looks like I gotta be hot and cold, gotta be tart and old, got to be good and cool.
But perfectly honest, please.
Hey, oh, I think the world paid good for me.
This is a hindrance to my health if I'm a stranger to myself.
Oh, miniature disaster, minor catastrophe.
Hey, bring me to my knees.
Well, I must be.
My own master for a miniature disaster will be, oh, will be the death I make.
I don't have to raise my voice, don't have to be underhand.
Just gotta understand, understand.
That it's gonna be up and down.
It's going to be once I'm found.
Oh, and I can't say to the sky, before I lie here on the ground.
And I need to be patient and I need to be brave.
Need to decide on my own way of living.




Discover how I need to behave
And I'll find out the answers when I know what to ask
But I speak a different language and everybody's talking too fast
A miniature disaster, a minor catastrophe
Bring me to my knees, yeah
Well, I must be my own master
Or a miniature disaster will be
Will be, yeah, yeah
Well, I've got some of my little past
Or a miniature disaster will be
Will be, oh
Well, I need to know I last
If a little miniature disaster hits me
Oh, oh
Will be the death of me
Will be the death of me
