Croak |
| Happy ever-afters they are just a joke |
| Forever is a long time it will go up in smoke |
| There are no happy endings just a few happy times |
| In youth we are immortal then shocked by our decline |
| How slowly does the penny drop we’re victims of a joke |
| Quite often realisation is just before we croak |
| There are no happy ever-afters the stuff of fairy tales |
| How slowly does it dawn on us that we are born to fail |
| That’s when we tend to realise what a waste of time |
| Like actors in the worst of plays pointless every line |
| How slowly does the penny drop we’re victims of a joke |
| Quite often realisation is just before we croak |
| Well often it is praised the sanctity of life |
| A pointless aimless exercise in loss suffering and strife |
| Well when you leave this world I hope you’ve had a laugh |
| 'Cause someone’s played a trick on you they fucked you up the arse |
| How slowly does the penny drop we’re victims of a joke |
| Quite often realisation is just before we croak |
| It might be in the worst of taste this god’s little joke |
| But now I have realised it I think it’s time to croak |
