You always read self-help books
Nothing seems to work
You've been searching for lightning
And been singing mantras
You asked for some advice
But don't fool yourself
Pride is not the best way to go
You need to put your expectations low

With low expectations
That's the way to go
If everything goes wrong
At least you had some fun
You need to put your expectations low

You always read self-help books
Nothing seems to work
You've been searching for lightening
And been singing mantras
You ask for some advice
But don't fool yourself
Pride is not the best way to go
You need to put your expectations low
With low expectations

That's the way to be
If everything goes wrong
At least you're not gonna cry
You need to put your expectations low

With low expectations
That's my way to go
If everything goes wrong
At least you had some fun

Pride is not the best way to go
You need to put your expectations low
