I don't know how good I am
Been running 'round on my old man
And if I'm alone, I put glass bottles in the garbage can
So I don't know how good I am

I don't know how smart I am
Left a candle burning again
And I went out and did the thing you said you couldn't stand
So I don't know how smart I am

But I wanna be virtuous
Do something that when I die might be described as selfless
I don't know if it's fate or DNA
But so far I'm not proud of how I've spent my days
I wanna do something worth a damn
But I don't know how good I am

I don't know if I'll succeed
No matter how many self-help books that I read
I try to keep on sewing knowing that is what I'll reap
But all I ever get is weeds
And I'm not even a fraction of how far I thought I'd be

I wanna be virtuous
Do something that when I die might be described as selfless
I don't know if it's fate or DNA
But so far I'm no better than most things I hate
I wanna do something worth a damn
But I don't know how good I am

When nobody's watching
I like to think I'll do the right thing
Does it reflect on my heart if I return the shopping cart
Or tell you that I'm coming home when I know I won't

I wanna be virtuous
Do someting that when I die might be described as selfless
I don't know if it's fate or DNA
But so far I'm just way too stuck in my old ways
I wanna do something worth a damn
But I don't know how good I am
