4 Minute Mile - Bell X1

I’ll never run a four minute mile

And that’s okay most of the time

Never played for Barcelona

Or sail around the world alone

I’ll never be the man on the wire

The time has come to face it and say

That I will never play the Dane

No blowtorch of ambition

It was never part of my mission

And we will never see this day again

But that’s okay

Yeah, that’s okay most of the time

I’ll never make a sun-powered car

Or build sandcastles on Mars

Get good at secrecy and stealth

Or redistribute the wealth

No routine on those parallel bars

I’ll never have a salad at McDonald’s

Or heed the call to monitise the arts

All those letters to Jim’llfixit lay somewhere in a basket

And the other guy got to play with Adam And The Ants

But that’s okay

Yeah, that’s okay most of the time

(That's okay)

I’m like Hernandez, he ran away

He wants to see better days

He says this bullfight it’s not for me

I’m still in play I got family

(Yeah, that’s okay)

Hernandez, he ran away

He wants to see better days

(Most of the time)

He says, «This bullfight, it’s not for me»

I gotta half-life, I gotta half-life, I gotta half-life

Yeah, that’s okay most of the time

That thing’s okay most of the time

Oh, that’s okay most of the time

I’ll never draw anything but stick-men

And they will never have any clothes

Be together in the mornings

Come upstairs to see your etchings

I’ll never suck a golf-ball through a hose

Yeah, I’ll never run a four minute mile

And that’s okay most of the time

Never launch my own fragrance

Or be proper famous

I may even wear my trousers rolled

But that’s okay

Yeah, that’s okay most of the time

(That's okay)

I’m like Hernandez, he ran away

He wants to see better days

(Most of the time)

He says this bullfight it’s not for me

I’m still in play I got family

(Yeah, that’s okay)

Hernandez, he ran away

He wants to see better days

(Most of the time)

He says, «This bullfight, it’s not for me»

He’s not ashamed of it, he’s not ashamed of it

(Most of the time)

He’s not ashamed of it, he’s not ashamed of it

He’s not ashamed of it

Most of the time, most of the time

Most of the time, most of the time
