It's a Miracle (All Because of You)
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 artiste
Still too cerebral for the goons
Nonetheless I've made a living
Out of 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
30 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
Playing guitar solos like this
It's a miracle, truly a miracle
30 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
And I'm 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
Seemed impossible
It's a miracle
You know
And you know it's all because of you
It's a miracle, truly a miracle
30 years ago it seemed nigh on impossible
It's a miracle, truly a miracle
And it's all because of you
