That silver is starting to wear off in your mouth.
So you spit out your spoon and stick your hand out.
What a loss, what a burden, the incredible weight
Of a world that needs saving in a special new way.
Zealous and angry, usefully mad.
That’s all you need to get back on the path.
Can you lie? Can you steal? Can you keep a straight face?
Oh, then we have something for you.
Living is easy when you get all you want
And if you just can believe it you might make something of yourself.
So you pray on your knees for incredible grace
To wash all it’s favors once more over your face.
Ban the useless, the dumb, all the wasters of space
But then you might have made an exception or two for yourself.
Oh, wait a minute here.
You trade in tall tales, fibs, and lies, sob stories, and hate
So you can put on that crown and reign, born to be king over slave.
Well, well, what matters it? Believe that too.
Living is easy, so don’t cash in your chips when the trees just grow money
Cuz you asked for streets of gold.
Living is easy as long as you know you can’t steal a reflection that you already own.
Liars and pimps and thugs
Tramps and thieves who steal your drugs.
Hey, kid, it’s all the same.
You might find out in the rain, out where your tears belong,
Where they sell souls for a song,
It’s not so bad to be just another curse on the breeze.
