A rhapsody! Contestants in disguise
A nation of desire
But who will win the prize?
The people stand united,
Reluctantly aligned

Copying and lying
Are the favorite past-time
You´ve got a chance
To confront the world today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is skill
If you don´t make it to the dance?
Despite circumstance
You´ve got a chance

Common life depicted on afternoon tv,
Is spiked to give the miserable a vogue identity
Hate your neighbors,
Cheat your friends,
They don´t discriminate
Popularity and fame don´t care
If you´re a reprobate

You´ve got a chance
To confront the world today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is skill
If you don´t make it to the dance?
Despite circumstance
You´ve got a chance

I´m tired of all this
Shakespearean misinformation
I want to win the game
You´ve got the right intentions
But who´s got time to think?
You´ve got a noon appointment,
You´ve got to hit the links
You´re talking in the stratosphere,

You´re curled up on the floor
With such a wealth of information,
Why are you so poor?
You´ve got a chance
To be relevant today
Desperate romance
Is the curse of castaways
What good is skill
If you don´t make it to the dance?
(don´t you believe what the wise men have to say)
Despite circumstance
You´ve got a chance
