Robi Mitch - Deputy Lyrics

Guess that I'll live longer than some good ones
Guess that I'll go sooner than some bad ones
Cos the good lord gives and he takes away
In a way that doesn't make sense to me
Guess that it's a good job that he's the top dog
And I am just a deputy

Guess I could have ended up a narwhal
Or some other ocean-dwelling animal
But the big man didn't give me the choice
To be a blue whale or a porpoise
I'd have been a big deal as an elephant seal
Or swimming as a manatee

Time will tell the way that only time can
If it's a good thing I was born a human
With such big visions and such great plans
But such a small mind and such tiny hands
Yeah it's a good job that I'm not at the top
I'm better as a deputy
I'm better as a deputy
I'd rather be a deputy
