You're always ahead of the game,
I drag behind,
You never get caught in the rain,
When I'm drenched to the bone every time,
You're the first one to swim cross the Seine,
I lag behind,
You're always ahead of the game,
While I drag behind,

I drag behind,
I drag behind,
I drag behind,
I drag behind

You're always ahead of the pack,
I drag behind,
You possess every trait that I lack,
By coincidence or by design,
You're the monkey I got on my back1,
That tells me to shine,
You're always ahead of the pack,
While I drag behind,

I drag behind (x8)

You're always ahead of the rest,
When I'm always on time,
You got A's on your algebra tests,
I failed and they kept me behind,
I just gotta get off my chest,
That I think you're divine,
You're always ahead of the rest,
While I drag behind.

I drag behind (x8)
