Forgot my alarm, I overslept again
Had to shave in a hurry, almost cut off my chin
Slipped in the bathtub, I think I broke my neck
My car's out of gas, I forgot to check
Going nowhere fast, what the heck

Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a movie
Acting out a story that's not my own
There's drama and action and random acts of tragedy
I don't want to be in this starring role

I got to work late, my boss chewed me out
Called me irresponsible, cleaned my desk out
Stopped by the hospice, said bye to a friend
Found out I had cancer, only six months to live
What's the joke? I give

Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a movie
Acting out a story that's not my own
There's drama and action and random acts of tragedy
I don't want to be in this starring role
I can't believe it
Bad things are always happening to me
Serenity, achieve it
Maybe it's not as bad as it seems

Pulled over for speeding, I wasn't in the mood
Got sprayed with mace, had a bad attitude
Talked to my wife, she'd understand
Said she was leaving, found a better man
How can this be? I don't understand

Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a movie
Acting out a story that's not my own
There's drama and action and random acts of tragedy
I don't want to be in this starring role

Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a movie
Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a movie
I don't want to be in this starring role
