Fear and Common Sense

So you're a beautiful woman and I should ask you out
But you live in high society and even though I'm no slouch
I don't run in your circles so I don't know what you'll think of me
I know that I should give it a shot but it's hard for me to see

It's only fear and common sense that's ever held me back
I don't know where my courage is it's the courage that I lack
It's this fear and common sense that keeps on holding me back
If I could just overcome it I'd surely be on track

I should ask my boss for a raise it's exactly what I need
But you'd think that he'd just give it, as he'd want to please me
For all that I've done for him working hard from dawn till dusk
Toiling each and everyday but I guess it's something that I must

It's only fear and common sense that's ever held me back
I don't know where my courage is it's the courage that I lack
It's this fear and common sense that keeps on holding me back
If I could just overcome it I'd surely be on track

Refrain

Maybe I should be a race car driver or fly a big Jet Plane
Or I could go climb the highest mountain and rise to some fame
Maybe I could be a matador or even a rodeo clown
I could be just about anything I could even own this town

It's only fear and common sense that's ever held me back
I don't know where my courage is it's the courage that I lack
It's this fear and common sense that keeps on holding me back
If I could just overcome it I'd surely be on track
If I could just overcome it I'd surely be on track

So maybe it's time to shed all this fear, fear and common sense
And rise to the occasion and just call you up tonight
