The Greatest Story Ever Told
[Intro]
(The good news I bring you is this: Your captivity is over)
[Verse]
Good luck being perfect, now I'm back in town
Raising your standards ain't gonna save you now
Your moral hygiene always ends in tears
Do-goods feel good spreading their zeal like gonorrhoea
Yeah, you've gotta keep it simple stupid, there ain't no free lunch
The bigger they are, the harder that they punch
I was big once but these days it's all about crazy schemes
That kings and vermin hatch for in-betweens
Now I'm back, Jack, tellin' ya come down off your cross
Somewhere out there it's surеly five o'clock
[Pre-Chorus]
But hey
Hey
Hеy
Oh, nobody listens to me anyway
[Chorus]
I'm saying there ain't no end of days
This ain't the middle ages
There's no grails, there's no safe bets
What you see is what you get
[Pre-Chorus]
But hey
Hey
Hey
Hey, nobody listens to me anyway, now
[Chorus]
There ain't no happy end
No matter how hard you pretend
Just keep on running, running off your mouth
And see how that works out for you
[Verse 2]
When I, I said I loved youse I was lying, it ain't true
So do to others as I do to you
I've come, I'm done, have fun, I gotsta bid you farewell
The truth is out there, I'll see yas in hell
[Instrumental Outro]
