lyrics

They and I are not alike
They've got it easier, their names are like halos
They are gentry, I'm low life
And now I wonder how they make all that shale flow

I'm jealous

Who will know when I die
You surely won't see my name in the papers
Why complain when I get by
At least down here I cannot fall out of favour

There's something comfortable
About not trying to be a giant
It isn't worth the trouble
Not worth the trouble, no

I just want my kids to love me
But I'm fine with mere respect
Don't mind staying below the heavens
As long as I'm above contempt

I just want my kids to love me (I just want my kids to love me)
But I'm fine with mere respect (But I'm fine with mere respect)
Don't mind staying below the heavens (Don't mind staying below the heavens)
As long as I'm above contempt (As long as I'm above contempt)

There's something comfortable
About not trying to be a giant
It isn't worth the trouble
Not worth the trouble, no

When they place us side by side
Try as I might, it takes me back to dreaming

Oh, yeah

There's something comfortable
About not trying to be a giant
It isn't worth the trouble
Not worth the trouble, no
