I rose to my level of incompetence
I didn't get very far
I rose to where nature left me
Below the bottom bar

The housing here is poor
The food is second rate
Self esteem is flagging
I'm glad I've got you mate

Wish I could climb higher
Wish I could join the throng
There's light and air up there man
Down here the days are long.

I rose to my level of incompetence
My heart and my cupboard are bare
They tell me that I must try harder
But they say things like that from up there
