Looking out for number one, yeah, me, myself and I
Oh, I was a real prima donna
Treating people like I was God's gift to all mankind
I guess I forgot I was human
Thinking that I had it all
Well, I was headed for a fall
Just about to blow my horn
(Who put the banana peel on the floor)
Well, I took a tumble, flat on my face
It made me humble, put me back in my place, oh, yeah
I took a tumble, flat on my face
(Fell flat on my face)
It made me humble, put me back in my place, oh, no
Listen up
No, no, no
On top of the world, I created for myself
My ego loved the exposure
Well, when you're king of the hill
There's no room for someone else
That's when your party is over
Eating crow's no tasty treat
Humble pie is never sweet
Time for me to take my seat
(Somebody pulled the rug out from under my feet)
Well, I took a tumble, flat on my face
It made me humble, put me back in my place, oh, yeah
I took a tumble, flat on my face
(Fell flat on my face)
It made me humble, put me back in my place, don't you know
Hey, I took a tumble, flat on my face
It made me humble, put me back in my place, oh, yeah
I took a tumble, flat on my face
(Fell flat on my face)
It made me humble, put me back in my place
Don't you know, yes
I've fallen, now I can't get up
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Whoa, flat on my face
Put me back on my face, oh, yeah...
