Austin’s Lament

From the episode "Race Around The World" and it is on the DVD "Cave Party"


(tune: "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"/"Alphabet Song"/"Baa, Baa, Black Sheep") 
(Austin solo)

I want to win this race somehow, but I’m not in first place right now
I'm not in second, or in third, I don't know quite how this occurred
I'm well prepared, but I’m not fast, instead of leading, I’m dead last
And I’m not happy about this, no sir, I’m not happy about this
Oh yes, I’m bummed that I’m so slow, but it’s not over yet, I know
My chance of winning’s kinda small, but if I quit there’s none at all
So I’ll keep hiking ‘cross this range and hope that things will somehow change
‘Cuz I’d be happy about that, yes sir, oh I’d be happy about that
if something strange makes this race change, well I’d be happy about that!
