It's a Miracle (All Because of You)

I'm too corny for the hipsters
I'm too edgy for the rubes
It's a wonder my career
Hasn't gone right down the tubes
I'm too dumb for the arty
And too cerebral for the goons
Nonetheless, I've made a living
I'm singing my own tunes

I'm too wild for the old folks
Too mild for the kids
I'm too trebly, I'm too bassy
So I'm turning up my mids
And the critics all critique me
See, I'm doing it all wrong
Nonetheless, I've made a living
Out of singing my own songs

And that's a miracle, truly a miracle
Thirty years ago it seemed nigh on impossible
It's a miracle, truly a miracle
And it's all because of you

I'm too bourgeois for the rich folks
They don't seem to get the joke
I'm the elephant in the room
I'm the pig in the poke
I'm making fun of everyone
In the UK taking the piss
Nonetheless I've made a living
With guitar solos like this

It's a miracle, truly a miracle
Thirty years ago it seemed nigh on impossible
It's a miracle, truly a miracle
And you know it's all because of you

And I'm too stubborn to give up
I am determined to go on
Pretty soon I'll be extinct
Like a big old mastodon
And until that day arrives
You know exactly what I'll do
I'll be out there on the road
Singing songs like this to you

It's a miracle, truly a miracle
It seems impossible
It's a miracle, you know
And you know it's all because of you

And that's a miracle, truly a miracle
Thirty years ago it seemed nigh on impossible
It's a miracle, truly a miracle
And it's all because of you
