Lyrics

You won't ever amount to much
You won't be anyone
Now tell me what you were thinking of
How could think you would be enough
It's not that you have stayed too long
And it's not that you've done something wrong
It's not your fault
That you embarass us all

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

You've been used by a army of kings
You've been touched by lips of a queen
Now we've all made good use of you
But you won't be needed again
So why don't you move and let someone else in
And make some room for a new harlequin
'Cause you never know
When you'll disappoint us again

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

Now you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down

Now look at you with your worn out shoes
Living proof evolution is through
We're stuck with you
Revolution is doomed

'Cause you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud
