I was down on myself both day and night I couldn't get a thing to go just right I was hangin' by my thumb and Slippin' on my feet I had to take a break I couldn't stand the heat Just when I thought I could never win I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in I went to the movies last night again I couldn't stay long enough to see the end But there was something going on That I couldn't see Everybody's making out on the balcony I was missing out on the fun again But I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in I tried so hard to get back in the race I'd be satisfied if I could place There's so much competition but the best Don't always win I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in I went to a party and made a few passes One was a dream and the other was nasty I guess you know by now that I did it again But I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in I was down like a dollar coming up Against a yen I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
