THE MISANTHROPIST'S SONG

Life is futile nothing is worthwhile
I don't know what I'm doin'
The pubs and the clubs do me no good
They're leading me to ruin
Painted faces,crowded places,
You know I can't comply
I've no time for those clones with their mobile phones
I'll let it all go by

CHORUS:I'll let it all go by
I just let it,let it all go by

Politicians,statisticians
Have got me so confounded,
They're telling me I've got liberty
But I feel so bound and surrounded,
Corner signs,screaming headlines
I try to fathom why
I'll beat the blues,I'll ignore the news
And let it all go by

CHORUS

From my window I see people come and go
Sandra pull down the blind
I want classical music,life I choose it
I want some peace of mind
They won't put on me,persuade or con me
No matter how they try
I'll make sure somehow I keep my vow
To let it all go by

CHORUS

Feuds and fighting,battles,back-biting
Sandra must it be like this?
It all begins to turn me into
A miserable misanthropist
People laughing whilst the tower's collapsing
At times I feel the end is nigh
I'll find a bunker,I'll find a shelter
And let it all go by

CHORUS

It all seems futile nothing is worthwhile
I don't know what I'm doin'
The pubs and the clubs do me no good
They're just leading me to ruin
I've had enough of the poisonous stuff
It's goodbye to getting high
Now I've found life's good on the ground
I'll let it all go by

CHORUS
