fantastic odds

If not for my bald spot 
I'd be a superstar 
I'd strut around in free clothes
to impress

If not for my longshot
I'd be a gambler
I'd make a number of big, bad bets

If not for my slow start
I'd be a cornerback
I would be playing professional ball

If not for my free fall 
I'd be a climber, now 
I'd be
way on top
of it all! 

- If not for my 
- If not for my
bald
spot 

(I'd be a billionaire 
I'd drive a hundred-and-one
Corvettes)
(I would be famous
with no regrets) 
(I would be counting more
than 
you could bless) 
(I would be better and best,
no less) 

If not for my
If not for my bald spot. 
I'd have a head of hair
beyond counting 
so you'd just guess
