Well, I'm talking to a former engine driver
But he said his only great ambition
[Incomprehensible]
Searching for a picture of the fight
Tells me that he always kept his engine
He looked into the corners of his memory
That he lacked a little extra height
Well, I bumped into a man who'd been a boxer
Well, I met a woman working as a waitress
But he said he always had a feeling
Oh, to work with lions in a zoo, yes dear, you heard right
(Seasides)
Spit and polished up as good as new
Yes, the part was given to a kid, yes sir, you heard it right
But the part was given to a kid
Could have used a little extra height, yes mate, you heard right
Was to work with lions in a zoo
Look at the average person, speak to the man in the queue
(Engine)
Asked him what had been his greatest night
(Driver)
Can you imagine the first one is you?
(Waitress)
Said she worked the summer crowd at Seasides
Hollywood ambition made a starlet grown up overnight
Look at the average person, speak to the man on the beat
Once she had a Hollywood audition
(Boxer)
Told me his ambition was to work with lions every night
Winter time she ran away and hid
He always had a feeling that he might have lacked a little height
Can you imagine the first one you'd meet?
Trying to find out what he used to do
(Memory)
I asked exactly what it was she did
