letra de jonas the local winner - a rise and fall of a dilapidated home

[intro: clip from malcolm in the middle]

malcolm:
how is being rich throwing my life away?

lois:
because, it’s not the life you’re supposed to have
the life you’re supposed to have is you go to harvard
and you earn every fellowship and internship they have
you graduate first in your class and you start working in public service–either district attorney or running some foundation–
and then you become governor of a mid-sized state and then you become president

francis:
thought you knew

hal:
our expectations started much smaller, but you just kept upping the ante

malcolm:
what if i don’t wanna be president?

lois:
it’s too late for that
you’re gonna do it

malcolm:
oh, really?
have you decided my position on
capital-gains tax cuts?
what are my foreign policy objectives?
lois:
that doesn’t matter
what does matter is that you’ll be the only person in that position who will ever give a cr-p about people like us
we’ve been getting the short end of the stick for thousands of years and i, for one, am sick of it
now, you are going to be president, mister, and that’s the end of it

malcolm:
did it ever occur to you that i could have taken this job, gotten really rich, and then bought my way into being president?

lois:
of course it did
we decided against it

malcolm:
what?

lois:
because, then you wouldn’t be a good president
you wouldn’t have suffered enough

malcolm:
i have been suffering all my life!

lois:
i’m sorry, it’s not enough
you know what it’s like to be poor and you know what it’s like to work hard
now you’re gonna know what it’s like to sweep floors and bust your ass and accomplish twice as much as all the kids around you
and it won’t mean anything because they will still look down on you
and you will want so much for them to like you and they just won’t
and it’ll break your heart
[verse]
don’t worry
i’m doin’ oh-so fine
it’s so easy
not to lose your mind or
is it the opposite of that?
i can’t remember at all (all alone)

[chorus]
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)

my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
my body confronts me (if you can’t live life alone)
it tells me i ain’t worthy (then aren’t you just as accident pr-ne?)
(my body floats away, leaving my mouth open with nothing else to say)
