verse 1 Hurry up before you go and get old Hurry up before your blood runs cold None of us were ever meant to stay We're all gonna find that one day Pre-Chorus You see life's too short to run it like a race So it's never gonna matter if you win first place Cause we're all the same Stop waiting on your fifteen minutes of fame Cause you're not special I'm not trying to rain on your parade But you're not special I'm not trying to bring you down I'm not trying to sound so ineffectual But you're not special verse 2 Hurry up before the bottle kicks in Before the poison and the pain sets in Pre-Chorus If you take it down a notch and you let me explain That on this earth we are all the same And all I can say is Stop waiting on your fifteen minutes of fame Cause you're not special I'm not trying to rain on your parade But you're not special I'm not trying to bring you down I'm not trying to sound so ineffectual But you're not special Bridge We all live to lie We all fall apart We all go to war For the faint of heart Instead we're condescending There are no happy endings I won't hold my breath I won't cast a doubt I'd never sell you out But I'll give you one last chance to own it Cause you're not a god or a poet so Stop waiting on your fifteen minutes of fame Cause you're not special I'm not trying to rain on your parade But you're not special I'm not trying to bring you down I'm not trying to sound so ineffectual But you're not special Outro (x4)
