embrace your inner curmudgeon

Curmudgeon Blues I don't suffer fools gladly It makes me a bit prickly I'm wiser than your inner child Says my inner curmudgeon Your small talk, pleasantries, and platitudes Don't reach me The soothsayer's twaddle The seductive pose of the supermodel Banalities of banalities, all is banality All the charms of the world No longer touch me (love goes so cold) The more I care, the more disappointed I am You believe you're so special Maggot food is all we are All your fun, your fads Your Facebook and Twitter All the annoying chatter And your hip-hop and autotune, Your self-affirming cocoon And your bootie, your tattoos 40 years on they'll sag askew Life will teach you, through lost love And dead dreams, and abandoned idols The bitter disappointments of life Ah, sweet bitterness Happiness is overrated You're not gonna get what you want Who said life was fair? (love goes so cold) My life's closer to being over Than you pups have lived So don't tell me to cheer up When there's glass in the grass When maggot food is all we are What you're doing is a waste of time To hell with your inner child Embrace your inner curmudgeon Happiness is overrated And love will go away All the charms of this world Just commercialized banalities And turn that music down Stop all that loving and laughing You'll see, you will see Hey, where did everybody go? Where did you go? Where did my love go? (love goes so cold) x
