Chicken Soup For the Shrivelled Soul

Remember that you are always right
And others always wrong
If only they could see the light
And sing your victory song

Surely made of the right stuff
That is truly what you are
If only the world would recognise
The brightness of your star

Hold your head above the human race
You are better than the rest
When it comes to being good
They cannot pass the test

Whenever things don't go right
And come screeching to a halt
Take comfort in knowing that
It never was your fault
