Swing and a miss, the perfect kiss
Has vanished from your lips today
Swing and a miss, yer not at your best
When you’re praying for a rain delay
You get on up, you get shot down
Go walk it off, there’ll be another play
You’re fed up and ready to throw in the towel
But stick it out it’s all a part of the game
Yeah what ya gotta realize
Even the best of the best
Are usually gonna get up
Swing and miss
Swing and a miss, don’t throw your fists
When you feel like a rock that’s got no roll
Swing and hit, now run with it
Remember that when you’re feeling low
You learn the lessons, change your directions
Just take the wrongs and make 'em right
And you won’t ever reach perfection
But now and again you’ll get home alright
The thing that really matters
Even the best in the biz
Are usually gonna get up, swing and miss
You get on up and you get shot down
You’re hitting fouls and you're tired of playing
Your pride is hurt and your head's turned round
But stick it out, it’s all a part of the game
And what ya gotta realize, even the Mick and the Kid
Were usually gonna get up, swing and miss
Don’t ya think what really matters
You ain’t no different than the rest
Sometimes we’re all gonna get up
Swing and miss
