Sarah always thought she’d be a singer in a rock ‘n’ roll band
Pushing drugs at 17 but now she’s busy pushing a pram
Sometimes when the baby won’t stop crying and X Factor’s on
She thinks she made a big mistake
She drifts away
You missed the boat
The ship has sailed
You never tried
You never failed
But don’t be bitter don’t be sad
Be happy for what you’ve got
Not what you’ve never had
Sarah goes to karaoke every second Friday night
She does her Tina Turner, drinks Lambrini and the world’s alright
Standing in the spotlight all the years begin to fall away
’Til the minute that the music fades
She slips away
You missed the boat
The ship has sailed
You never tried
You never failed
But don’t be bitter don’t be sad
Be happy for what you’ve got
Not what you’ve never had
