《Since I Gave Up Hope I Feel a Lot Better(Album)》歌词

[00:00:00] Since I Gave Up Hope I Feel Alot Better (Album) - Steve Taylor

[00:00:17] Enter the young idealist

[00:00:18] Chasing dragons to slay

[00:00:22] Exit the hustler

[00:00:23] Packing up his MBA

[00:00:27] Freshmen scream in a classroom

[00:00:30] Was there a sound

[00:00:32] First degree in the vacuum

[00:00:34] I'm on college ground

[00:00:37] Took a class

[00:00:38] Big fun

[00:00:38] Modern ethics 101

[00:00:40] First day learn why

[00:00:41] Ethics really don't apply

[00:00:42] Prof says one trait

[00:00:44] Takes us to a higher state

[00:00:45] Drug free pure bliss

[00:00:46] Get your pencils copy this

[00:00:48] Life unwinds like a cheap sweater

[00:00:50] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:00:52] And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter

[00:00:55] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:01:08] Top of the class sits ernest

[00:01:10] He was brightest and best

[00:01:13] Till the professor lured him

[00:01:15] To the hopeless nest

[00:01:18] Now he lives for the shortcut

[00:01:20] Like a citizen should

[00:01:23] Tells the class with a wink

[00:01:25] Only the young die good

[00:01:28] He says ideals uncouth

[00:01:30] Fatalism needs youth

[00:01:31] Eat well floss right

[00:01:32] Keep the hungry out of sight

[00:01:34] Save face nip and tuck

[00:01:35] Praise yourself and pass the buck

[00:01:36] Don't forget the best advice

[00:01:38] Everybody's get a price

[00:01:39] Life unwinds like a cheap sweater

[00:01:41] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:01:44] And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter

[00:01:46] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:01:49] While the world winds down to a final prayer

[00:01:52] Nothing soothes quicker than complete despair

[00:01:55] I predict by dinner I won't even care

[00:01:57] Since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:02:07] Nazis plead in a courtroom

[00:02:10] Pardon me boys

[00:02:12] Profits fall in a boardroom

[00:02:14] Did they make a noise

[00:02:17] Someone spreads an affliction

[00:02:20] Company's nice

[00:02:23] Someone sells an addiction

[00:02:25] Puts your soul on ice

[00:02:29] Half wits knock heads

[00:02:30] Candidates in double beds

[00:02:32] Good guys defect

[00:02:34] I can't precisely recollect

[00:02:34] Teacher's pet theory's fine

[00:02:36] If you're born without a spine

[00:02:37] Can't you spell wrong

[00:02:38] Sing it to him papa John

[00:02:49] While the world winds down to a final prayer

[00:02:52] Nothing soothes quicker than complete despair

[00:02:55] I predict by dinner I won't even care

[00:02:58] Since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:03:02] Life unwinds like a cheap sweater

[00:03:04] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:03:07] And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter

[00:03:09] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:03:12] Life unwinds like a cheap sweater

[00:03:14] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better

[00:03:17] And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter

[00:03:19] But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better
