Mr. Pessimist

[Intro] Don't worry about it [Verse 1] Time will swallow Your precious time Like magic create the future [Chorus 1] 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 [Verse 2] Evangelistic brother Should be banging a tambourine Go wash your hands and fingers 'Til your mind is clean [Chorus 2] 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 [Interlude] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus 3] Listen, Mr. Pessimister With your Catholic taste Oh, listen, Mr. Pessimister, Pessimister We do not relate Listen, Mr. Pessimister, Pessimister, Pessimister Mr. Pessimister
