Well, I might see the irony
But I've tried and I find I don't
Everyone knows how the punch line goes
I suppose that means they get the joke

You know
I can see them fake a fall
Make believe to save a soul
And I bless each day they don't take it all

Because everybody's telling me
Word for word, like I never heard before
And it gets to the end and again, my friend
And I can't raise a smile no more

You know
Less concern Ive never seen
Best I'll learn to damn your sympathy
I curse you all from the day you need

This giving is one thing
Driven through something else
Divide it around amongst yourselves
Get it out and spare me none
There is no doubt that day will come

Because everybody's telling me
Word for word, like I never heard before
And then it gets to the bit
Where it turns to ****
And i cant raise a smile no more

You know, you know
Less concern I've never seen
Best I'll learn to damn your sympathy
I curse you all from the day you need
I curse you all from the day you need
