Lyrics

Miniature Disasters

Don't wanna be second best
Don't wanna stand in line
Don't wanna fall behind

Don't wanna get caught out
Don't want to do without
Oh and the lesson I must learn
Is that I've got to wait my turn

Looks like I gotta be hot and cold
Gotta be taught and told
Got to be good as gold

But perfectly, honestly
Oh, I think it would be good for me
'Cause it's a hindrance to my health
If I'm a stranger to myself

Oh, miniature disasters and minor catastrophes
Bring me to my knees
Well, I must be my own master
Or a miniature disaster will be, oh
It will be the death of me

I don't have to raise my voice
Don't have to be underhand
Just gotta understand

That it's gonna be up and down
It's going to be lost and found
Oh, and I can't take to the sky
Before I like it on the ground

And I need to be patient
And I need to be brave
Need to discover
How I need to behave

And I'll find out the answers
When I know what to ask
But I speak a different language
And everybody's talkin' too fast

Miniature disasters and minor catastrophes
Bring me to my knees, yeah
Well, I must be my own master
Or a miniature disaster will be, will be, yeah, yeah

Well, I've gotta run a little faster
Or a miniature disaster will be, will be
Oh well, I need to know I'll last
If a little miniature disaster hits me, oh, oh
It will be the death of me
