Low Expectations Lyrics - Edwyn Collins

So, you set out on your own 

You shut up shop, you're leavin' home 

You feel no need to settle down 

In the crippled crook of your earth bound town 

And you've been down this road before 

Which is not to say you're bored 

Or that you shouldn't want for more 

It's just your expectations should be lower 

There must be somethin' more than this 

More than ideal homes or domestic bliss 

What is there left for you to do 

'Cause you've seen the future and it's nothin' new 

And you've been down this road before 

Which is not to say you're bored 

Or that you shouldn't want for more 

It's just your expectations should be lower, should be lower
