Time will swallow

Your precious time

Like magic create the future



What makes man so fickle ?

Who put the daggers in those eyes ?

Was it to learn

Through dark days of struggle ?

Was it to burn

To burst all our bubbles ?

Thunder and rain

Well the cynicle flame will it heat, stick and blister ?

Thunder and rain



Evangelistic brother

Should be banging a tambourine

Go wash your hands and fingers

Till your mind is clean



Was it your fate

To sleep like a normal ?

Time and decay

No man is immortal

Thunder and rain

Boredom and pain lit the cynical flame

Will it heat stick and blister ?

Thunder and rain

Still try to resist the pessimist

The pessimist no no



And these things I find

In the back of my mind

Where time lasts forever

I get all mixed

Think I'm all mankind



Listen Mr Pessimister

With your Catholic taste

Oh listen Mr Pessimister Pessimister

We do not relate

Listen Mr Pessimister, Pessimister, Pessimister

Mr Pessimister
