Creation of Fred

They're not on your side, you create what you find And if I've learnt something, it's that luck cost nothing The Creation of Fred, was unexpected It left God confused And as he lay on his own, skin tethered to his bones His back black and blue He could have what he could see But his eyes locked with no key His rights had left his parent's mind at three He could have anything he could remember But his memory was gone since September The odds for him were few and far between So please, grit your teeth Retrain to believe There's still one thing to complete So get your head down and see They're not on your side, you create what you find And if I've learnt something, it's that luck cost nothing Could it really be all bad And are you holding back something in between He thought he must misunderstand And as he looked over the fence he realised neither side was green And the blisters on his hands, wouldn't stop him climbing trees And the cold start he was given, yeah it couldn't make him freeze And I have never seen him with his chin down on his chest I can't say that for the rest So please, grit your teeth Retrain to believe There's still one thing to complete So get your head down and see They're not on your side, you create what you find And if I've learnt something, it's that luck cost nothing
