I Wish I Was a Has Been

Song Not Yet Released

I wish I was a has been with the world once at my feet
With tales of drunk and disorderly and broken hotel suites
I wish I was a has-been, that would be so cool
Cause it’s better to be a has-been than a never was at all

My obscurity is legendary in that I can’t be beat
To be so unsuccessful is really quite a feat
The door is often closed to a has-been, that’s for sure
But when you are a never was there simply ain’t no door

If they ever made a pop chart on how it should not be done
There ain’t no doubt about it, I’d be number one
They say if you work hard enough it’ll finally come to pass
But I am here to tell you now they’re talking through their arse
