Mr. Pessimist |
Time will swallow your precious time |
Like magic create the future |
What makes a man so fickle? |
Who put the daggers in those eyes? |
Was it to learn |
Through dark days of struggle? |
Was it to burn |
To burst all our bubbles? |
Thunder and rain |
Well the cynical flame, will it heat, stick, and blister? |
Thunder and rain |
Evangelistic brother should be banging a tambourine |
Go wash your hands and fingers till your mind is clean! |
Was it your fate |
To sleep like a normal? |
Time and decay |
No man is immortal |
Thunder and rain |
Boredom and pain lit the cynical flame, will it heat, stick, and blister? |
Thunder and rain |
Still try to resist |
The pessimist |
The pessimist, no no! |
And these things I find |
In the back of my mind |
Where time lasts forever |
I get all mixed up, think I’m all mankind |
Listen Mr. Pessimister with your Catholic taste… |
Oh, listen Mr. Pessimister, Pessimister, we do not relate… |
Listen Mr. Pessimister, Pessimister, Pessimister… |
Mr. Pessimister! |
