Only One

(album: A Boy Named Goo - 1995)

I'll open up my head awhile
Its been dead for years
Must've been a victim of my peers
One is for my happiness
The other for my health
The last is something bigger than myself

I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say

I'm talking to myself again
I'll just start a fight
And nobody can prove me wrong, I'm right
Anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse
A thousand other suckers who try and fill your shoes

I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say

I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say

Little pictures in my head, turning inside-out again
Cuz fucking up takes practice, I feel I'm well rehearsed
Because the past is a bully and the future's even worse
Tell me what you fear cuz I can feel it like a curse

Well, you used to be a folk singer, now you're just a joke singer
Ain't no smoking dope singer, swinging from a rope singer

I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say
