"Drop dead, it doesn't matter" she said |
|
"It only hurts when I laugh" she said |
|
Sometimes it's never a crime |
|
To spend the day in bed |
|
She made certain that the curtains were red |
|
To dream better by the light they would shed |
|
She leaned back, tilted her head |
|
This is what she said |
|
"You can't win, think it over again |
|
I can't win, look at the trouble I'm in |
|
We can't win, and we're stuck here together |
|
Yeah, I hope it will last forever" |
|
"Don't ever dare to hope" he said |
|
So I'm never let down too bad |
|
I know there's nowhere to go |
|
So I'll just stay here, instead |
|
He knew better than to pull at a thread |
|
They unravel like the thoughts in his head |
|
He looked out, it filled him with dread |
|
And this is what he said |
|
"You can't win, think it over again |
|
I can't win, look at the trouble I'm in |
|
We can't win, and we're stuck here together |
|
Yeah, I hope it will last forever" |
|
With good books and looks on their side |
|
And hearts burstin' with national pride |
|
They sang songs and went along for the ride |
|
And the other side complied |
|
They said, hey man, where do you reside? |
|
And could it be mother's superior lied? |
|
And is it possible too many have died? |
|
It's only natural to reply |
|
"You can't win, think it over again |
|
I can't win, look at the trouble I'm in |
|
We can't win, and we're stuck here together |
|
Yeah, I hope it will last forever" |
