it's the saddest thing you'll ever see
have I not been right so far? tell me:
when the mind collapses and turn to gravy
a thick brown mud is all you see
I don't know, but I know somebody
I don't know it but I've seen the movie
I could call you up, tell you what I've got
is the drop that will make the stone hollow
'cause the story's not over buttercup - it is merely beginning
kings & queens will come and pass
kings & queens will come and pass
and there's always a bigger ocean to swim
there's always a better pond to drown yourself in
wake up wake up wake up, you're dreaming
I see nightmares dancing underneath your eyelids
so come on take that frown, turn it upside down
I will forget myself and play the happy clown
like we balance on a rope above the rooftops
and if we fall there's nobody to catch us
but there's always a bigger reason to see
always something else, something bigger than me
so I burn my belly with gallons of coffee
trying to keep up some
kind of happy face in this fucked up place
but the story goes on & on & on...
