Don’t try to rise above yourself
Don’t try to sell it as top shelf
Know your place and love it
Don’t try to climb above it
Don’t try to rise above yourself

Don’t demand what you deserve
Be average in happiness
Don’t measure all your worth
Against your earthly success
There’s a special hell reserved
And it’s manned by the IRS

Don’t try to rise above yourself
