Overnight Success |
| The time has come to take a look around us See once again if we are living happily |
| 'Cause almost everything is changing |
| Things are seldom what they seem |
| So if we could be honest |
| We could say what we mean |
| You look at me and you think it’s been so easy |
| Things that you want, they should have been here yesterday |
| Well, that is not the way it happened |
| I worked hard for my respect |
| Believed what I was feeling |
| And try not to expect |
| Overnight success, stars are on the rise |
| These are ever changing times |
| Well, some will last and some will burn out too fast |
| I stood in it’s light, overnight success |
| I know doesn’t happen overnight |
| Well, the world is still a circle |
| What goes around, someday will come around again |
| So just treat every person fairly as you start among that cloud |
| 'Cause everything will happen in it’s own special time |
| Overnight success, stars are on the rise |
| These are ever changing times |
| Well, some will last and some will burn out too fast |
| I stood in it’s light, overnight success |
| I know doesn’t happen overnight |
| Well, the world will be a circle |
| What goes around someday will come around again |
| So just treat every person fairly |
| Reecho everyone’s respect |
| Just believe in what you’re doing |
| And try not to expect |
| Overnight success, stars are on the rise |
| These are ever changing times |
| Well, some will last and some will burn out too fast |
| I stood in it’s light, overnight success |
| I know doesn’t happen overnight |
