Mr. Hughes, how are you?
I know it's been a while
But I've been dying, trying to capture
A billion smiles
People like us, we are
Always misunderstood
Though there's ups and downs the bad outshines the good
Howard you're a 10, but
I'm not sure this ends well
Hold it close to your heart
What ever happened to Howard Hughes?
I guess life wasn't good to you
You gave it all you got, and still they threw you out
For being you
Even with our success we're as good as dead
Our worst critics were in our head
Society don't accept me or you
And all our friends agree
People say we're done for
We're liabilities
But I brought property on the thin line between genius and insanity
You wrote the books on brains and wealth, and looks
Ahead of both our times
Free thinkers only thrive in history books
Howard you're a 10, but
I'm not sure this ends well
Hold it close to your heart
What ever happened to Howard Hughes?
I guess life wasn't good to you
You gave it all you got, and still they threw you out
For being you
Even with our success we're as good as dead
Our worst critics were in our head
Society don't accept me or you
And all our friends agree
Howard, my dear
Was it films and planes that made you this way?
Howard, my dear
They spoke and we're jokes
Howard you're a 10, but I'm not sure this ends well
Hold it close to your heart
What ever happened to Howard Hughes?
I guess life wasn't good to you
You gave it all you got, and still they threw you out
For being you
Even with our success we're as good as dead
Our worst critics were in our head
Society don't accept me or you
And all our friends agree
