Amateur hour,
singing in your low-cut cowboy dress
with your sparklers and your lipstick smeared
for your little baby boy.
If I say you're trying too hard
would it make you try much harder,
or would you do what you always do
just smile and take a bow.

Amateur hour,
jumping through a real live wedding ring
to the other side with your family plot
to save the whole wide world.
If you say I'm thinking too much
would it make me think much different,
or would I say what I always say
I'll muddle through somehow.

I'd never say you're wrong
but still I think you're wrong to believe that this
might change your life, change your life.

If I say you're trying too hard
would it make you try much harder,
or would you do what you always do
just smile and take a bow.
