you used to be mean
|
you used to be cruel
|
but you were laughing then
|
and it was no accident
|
where did the mean man go
|
is he chasing his shadow
|
is he unhappy to report
|
that the gentleman he found is a terrible bore
|
|
you know it all
|
you've got all the answers
|
but if that's the case
|
what's with the long face
|
it's very easy to be brave
|
with your good foot in the grave
|
it's very easy to be cold
|
when there's no one in the world you want to know
|
it's very easy to be suave
|
when you're on your guard
|
like you always are
|
|
the sun goes down and now the shadows arise
|
and morning is broken as you mourn your life
|
you smile at your neighbors as you lock your doors
|
you face up the mirror, mister pimp or whore
|
|
is it hard to let go
|
at the foot of the rainbow
|
just to be informed
|
that the chase was your reward
|
here have a crock of gold
|
keep it for when you're old
|
like a week on tuesday
|
hey wise man say
|
it's very easy to be brave
|
with your good foot in the grave
|
it's very easy to be cold
|
when there's nowhere in the world you want to go
|
it's very easy to be suave
|
when you're on your guard
|
like you always are
|
|
the sun goes down and now the shadows arise
|
and morning is broken as you mourn your life
|
you smile at your neighbors as you lock your doors
|
you face up the mirror, mister pimp or whore
|
the sun goes down and now the shadows arise
|
and morning is broken as you mourn your life
|
you smile at your neighbors as you lock your doors
|
the morning is broken, mister pimp or whore
|
|
put me in the ground
|
put me in the ground
|
come on put me in the ground
|
the morning is broken
|
(the morning is broken as you mourn your life)
|
come on put me in the ground
|
(the sun goes down and now the shadows arise)
|
come on come on put me in the ground
|
(the morning is broken as you mourn your life)
|
the morning is broken
|
the sun goes down and now the shadows arise
|
and morning is broken as you mourn your life
|
