Graham Parker - Success Lyrics

Artist: Graham Parker

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

The dreams and hopes of men
Are powered by addiction
And who am I to say that
This is an affliction

When everybody gets
Suckered in and lives their
Lives like fiction
Writing their own story
Of success

They say they want you
For your colorful evocation
The way you turn a cliché
Into a sensation

But all they ever wanted
Was that same vibration
The one that shimmers
Around success

Success, success
Success, success, success
Success, success, success
All you ever need success

You can't be happy while
Someone else has a fistful
They glow from TV screens
Healthy strong and fiscal

And everybody slaps their
Back while you're alone
With a wristful
Jerking to the rhythm of success

Success, success
Success, success, success
Success, success, success
All you ever need success
