Doomsayer
Lyrics
I'm pacing by the highway I'm ranting on the witness stand There's a skipping, skipping, skipping Skipping record in my mouth I'm grabbing hold of strangers around me Warning happiness is just a distraction From the one thing I can't seem to shut up about All you madmen retreating to the mountains You astronomers who keep on counting I know how it feels I know how it feels When only one thing is real All you forgotten halfwits in the attic Finding God as you stare into static I know what it's like when your family cries I know how it feels ♪ Will the world finally get the message If I hide it in a pop song? Well, the second verse is here already; time is tight And will all of the kids who called me crazy Suddenly track down my address and thank me Saying, "Finally, I get it Finally, I see the light, and you were right"? All you madmen retreating to the mountains You astronomers who keep on counting I know how it feels I know how it feels when only one thing is real All you forgotten halfwits in the attic Finding God as you stare into static I know what it's like when your family cries I know how it feels ♪ And if you're suffering, I can help you Though I cannot help myself But don't you worry, I look well enough That no one else can tell And if you're suffering, I can help you Though I cannot help myself But don't you worry, I look well enough That no one else can tell And if you're suffering, I can help you Then I help myself Don't you worry Don't you worry Don't you worry All you madmen retreating to the mountains You astronomers just counting and counting I know how it feels I know how it feels when only one thing is real All you forgotten halfwits in the attic Finding God as you gaze into static I know what it's like when your family cries I know how it feels to be To be, to be To be the doomsayer Doomsayer To be the doomsayer Doomsayer Doomsayer Doomsayer ♪ (If you're suffering, I can help)
