Right to Fail - Dan McCafferty

Agent provocateurs

P.R. people, songsters and gangsters

Surrounded by them all

I went along, enjoyed it all

Ready with a song

Small time scandal got out on bail

Been up and down and bounced around

And found through it all

I’ve earned the right to fail

By trying different styles

Going down different trails

As long as you love your music

You’ve earned the right to fail

You’ve earned the right to fail

Liars and criers, media gurus

Wheelers and dealers do anything for you

Dancers, chanters and genuine stars

Blood in your veins like electric guitars

News headlines and gossip mags

Telling you your life is a drag

Your soul is strong, you love the song

Hammer on nail, you earned the right to fail

Success is a pleasure but it’s no measure

Of what you’re looking for

But still they’re out to kill

But where is their thrill

If you don’t care

You’ve earned the right to fail

You’ve earned the right to fail
