Make the Grade Songtext
von Jack Conte

Somewhere at the bottom of the ocean, I am floating past the algae
The whale bones
So pretty
But my body
Still didn′t make the grade
Still didn't make the grade

Somewhere in the basement I once had a good idea, but I can′t find it
My mind
Is drawing blanks
To fill the page
I still won't make the grade
Still won't make the grade

I′m regaining patience
In the better half of man
And the stories we′ll remember
Are from a different hand (oh-oh-oh)


Somewhere at the bottom of my brain, I just don't care and I don′t want to
But I do
Anyway
Anyway, I
Still won't make the grade
Still won′t make the grade

I'm regaining patience
In the better half of man
And the stories we′ll remember
Are from a different hand (oh-oh-oh)

Somewhere at the bottom of the ocean, I am floating past the algae
The whale bones
So pretty
My body
Still won't make the grade
Still won't make the grade

Still won′t make the grade
Still won′t make the grade
Still won't make the grade
