What Is Success Lyrics
How does one decide
That the methods he's using
They just don't jive
To truly believe and keep trying
Over and over again
Living in hopes
That someday you'll be in with the winners
When will one change his mind
And jump the fence

Its a sad thing, its a bad thing
But so necessary
Living in hopes
That someday you'll be in with the winners
Now what, what, (I don't know, can you tell me what)
What is success?
Is it do your own thing?
Or to join the rest
And if you truly believe it
And try over and over again
Living in hopes
That someday you'll be in with the winners
Oooh, tell me what it is
Sweet success
Oooh, tell me what it is
Sweet success
