I'm at the top of the bottom and I'm hittin' the skids
I'm a lean cut of ham from a bourgeois pig
You know I'm burnt out on uppers and it's gettin' me down
'Cause this paradise ain't nothin' but a cardboard town
Yeah this paradise ain't nothin' but a uhhhhhh
I am not the fortunate one
Ain't no debutante, ain't no businessman
I am not the fortunate one
I'm flat on my back
And I'm out in the sun
Hey man! We're moving too fast!
Now rock an roll is just a new kinda jazz
Hey man! I'm losing my gumption!
There's too much form in all this dysfunction
I am not the fortunate one
I'm all outta gas on the beer run
I am not the fortunate one
Yeah I'm flat on my back
And I'm out in the sun
ย
Now I'm back in the favela, I'm feeling so bad
For the pretty little faces all waiting to be had
Chubby little cherubs wrapped in cellophane
Like a prime rump roast from a tofu steak
I am not the fortunate one
But I can't look back when I'm keepin' on
I am not the fortunate one
Got a price on my back
In the discount rack
I am not the fortunate one
But I can't look back when I'm keepin' on
I am not the fortunate one
'Cause this getaway
Is just a ghetto way
I am not the fortunate one
I am not the fortunate one
'Cause I'm flat on my back
And I'm out in the sun
