Failure

She was the first I ever knew
Came from the mainland on the east side
She said don't follow me, don't follow me
You'll get lost
If you follow me, if you follow me
You'll get lost
She's not your regular Mrs. Robinson

She got him drunk so she could sneak out the hotel
I played her a song, I got it all wrong
It sounded like easy love

Well she laughed and she smiled
Didn't look like the type who'd like Genesis

She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
Cause it happens to the best of us

She asked me which way I wanted to go
I was too young to know the difference
When she showed me a trick
I couldn't handle it, I was too nervous
So she gave me a wink, said I would thank her for it
In the future when the other girls are lining up
Don't let a little failure get you down

She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
She said hey, don't let a little failure get you down
She said hey, don't ever let the failure get you down
Cause it happens to the best of us
