I got a real big credit limit but I ain't got a dime
I got a big Swiss watch with diamonds but I ain't got the time
I got a wall of dusty books but I ain't got no read
I got a plan to make the big time but I never succeed
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
I know just what to seek but I still never find
I got the wrong face, but the right mind
I know what to believe but they treat me unkind
I got a closet you can walk in but I ain't got no clothes
I got a new car for each day but I got nowhere to go
I got a lot of folks to walk on but I ain't got no shoes
I got everything to be happy but I still got the blues
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
I know just what to seek but I still never find
I got the wrong pace, with the right climb
I try so hard to lead, but I'm always behind
I always give but I never receive
I always get there when it's time to leave
I'm at the right place at the wrong time
I know just what to seek but I still never find
I got the wrong phrase, but the right rhyme
I know just what to speak, but I'm never in time
I always give but I never receive
I always get there when it's time to leave
"He's always gone when you knock on his door"
I'm always not what you've been looking for
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
I know just what to seek but I still never find
I got the wrong face, but the right mind
I never will achieve, so I'll sit here, & just bitch & whine
