[Chorus]
(You want) One more night
(You want) Nine more lives
(You need) Hearing eyes
(You need) Cleaner strides
(You want) Grand and picturesque
(You crave) Temper passion rest
You want youth and many souls all made of gold

[Verse]
I have built the boat to get me out of here
So I set the sails of misery
What we have is like the falling rain
We got someone to blame
What we want will always be the same
We are part of the game

[Pre-Chorus]
And no one wants to be in mediocrity, in mediocrity

[Chorus]
(You want) Just another dame
(You want) All in all aflame
(You have) Acres of their love
(You have) What is not enough
(You want) Grand and picturesque
(You crave) Temper passion rest
You want youth and many souls all made of
[Refrain]
What we have
Is like the falling rain
We got someone to blame
What we want
Will always be the same
We are part of the game
What we have
Is like the falling rain
We got someone to blame
What we want
Will always be the same
We are part of the game

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Always greener, always more
What you have is such a bore
Never-ending, seeking more
It's a wonder that we ignore
Always greener, always more
What you have is such a bore
Never-ending, seeking more
It's a wonder that we ignore
[Outro]
And no one wants to be in mediocrity
And no one wants to be in mediocrity, in mediocrity
