(Verse 1)

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 without

And the lesson I must learn

Is that I've got to wait my turn

(Verse 2) - repeat Verse1

Looks like I got to be hot and cold

I got to be taught and told

Got to be good as gold

But perfectly honest

I think it would be good for me

Coz it's a hindrance to my health

I'm a stranger to myself

(Chorus)

Miniature disasters and minor catastrophoes

Bring me to my knees

Well I must be my own master

Or a miniature disaster will be

It will be the death of me

(Verse 3) - repeat Verse1

I don't have to raise my voice

Don't have to be underhand

Just got to understand

That it's gonna be up and down

It's gonna be lost and found

And I can't take to the sky

Before I like it on the ground

(Bridge)

And i need to be patient

And i need to be brave

Need to 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

(Chorus) - repeat Chorus

Miniature disasters and minor catastrophoes

Bring me to my knees

Well I must be my own master

I've got to run a little faster

I need to know I'll last if a little

Miniature disaster hits me

It could be the death of me
