A town like all the others Growing up wasn’t easy And no one seemed to bother Mother’s always busy Finished school to see the world Find a job find a girl Moving on never looked back Sometimes even taking the wrong track Felt the rage grow inside A life filled with disappointment Was this a life Was this my life Felt the rage grow I was knocked I was down Moved further back in the row What was going on I wanted to feel like Paltrow I wanted a life just like her Just like Paltrow Just like her A life like plenty Was this really my choice It was never meant to If I listen to my inner voice I have to move on again I have to find the right way I’ve got to be strong I’ve got to go on Feel the rage grow I’m knocked I’m down Moving further back in the row What’s going on what’s going on I want to feel like Paltrow I want a life just like her
