Lyrics:

Hey baby
This is not a challenge
It just means that I don't love you as much as I always said I did
I was wrong
I have been laughable wrong
Sandpaper, paper maché stock, cobweb

Oh, the city
We are scared now
But nanananana…

Well, I didn't have to be afraid
I didn't have to feel so stupid
I can see myself
I can feel...

With just the slightest bit of finesse
I might have made a little less mess
But it was what it was
Let's all get on with it now

Discoverer! x four
We're laughing…
Discoverer!

Floating across Houston
It's where I am
I see the city rise up tall

The opportunities
The possibilities
Well, I have never felt so calm

Remember, the vodka special night of discovery
Remember that
Laughing, discovery
Oh how I look back and reflect
How I felt it, how I said
I don't have to feel so wrong
Now, why don't you take a few steps back and grasp…

Repeat Chorus

Happy to take any corrections or thoughts on the song in the comments!

Check out the lyrics to It Happened Today which features Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam. Or why don't you stop being a Sad Professor for half a second and check out the lyrics to All the Best. Oh, who am I kidding? We both know you have a secret crush on Lady Gaga's Born this Way song!
