Things Aren't So Bad After All

[Baby Fat]

Night after night I've the quickest of minds

Writhing in spasms of pleasure

Time after time I've the wickedest lines

Step right up for the poisonous bile

Things aren't so bad after all

Things aren't so bad after all

Come one come all - I'll take all of you down

At the end of the day that's all I've got

God struck me down with his right hand

And I became half-man and half-too-disturbing-to-contemplate

Things aren't so bad after all

Things aren't so bad after all, after all of them go

When they go it's all sunshine and love in the world

Things aren't so bad after all of them go

Bend the knee before the gilded throne

Kiss the ring pretend it's all a joke

Now when his majesty calls I appear

When he beckons, I'm there with the laughter

And if I'm dying inside there's a bright side

My teeth in their flesh like a benzedrine puff adder

Things aren't so bad after all

Things aren't so bad after all, after all of them go

When they go it's all sunshine and love in the world

Things aren't so bad after all of them go

After all of them go

After all of them go

After all of them go
