there is no excuse for sadness
in a world of choas and madness
there is no reason to cry
and a world of you and i
but we do it nonetheless
who's to say who does it best?
there's no justification
for alienation
or desegregation
in this world vacant wheel
there's no time to weary
or lonely or cheery
when apathy is all that we need to feel
too bad
so sad
all we ever had
was a pint of misery
that was a passing fad
dressing in black
we can't take it back
hoping and praying for another attack
dreams
schemes
a million and one things
i wish i could hold them al in hand
and then they'd all be mine
now isn't life grand?
smiles and sighs
from here to hereafter
the sorrow
was planned
the laughter was canned
and all the tokens
tossed out to the stands
we never really wanted
anything but fun
and everything's death
my life's a rerun
