I was down on myself both day and night
 
 I couldn't get a thing to go just right
 
 I was hangin by my thumb and
 
 Slippin on my feet
 
 I had to take a break I couldn't stand the heat
 
  
  Just when I thought I could never win
 
 I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
  
 
 I went to the movies last night again
 
 I couldn't stay long enough to see the end
 
 But there was something going on
 
 That I couldn't see
 
 Everybody's making out on the balcony
  
 
 I was missing out on the fun again
 
 But I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
  
 
 I tried so hard to get back in the race
 
 I'd be satisfied if I could place
 
 There's so much competition but the best
 
 Don't always win
 
 I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
  
 
 I went to a party and made a few passes
 
 One was a dream and the other was nasty
 
 I guess you know by now that I did it again
 
 But I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
  
 
 I was down like a dollar coming up
 
 Against a yen
  
 
 I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
