The Glittering Prizes

In the past

I always tried

But I never got amongst the glittering prizes

I put it down to confidence

Or something trendy like an emotional complex

But pretty soon

I'm going to change

You won't recognize me

Glittering prizes for me

I wear a clean shirt every day

And I quite enjoy my job as an office boy

But the novelty begins to fade'

Cause I never get the chance

To play with the executive toys

But pretty soon

I'm going to change

You won't recognize me

Glittering prizes for me
