Cynics and Critics
We’re not cynics, we just don’t believe a word you sayWe’re not critics, we just hate it all anyway
If you’re happy and you know itClap you hands like this‘Cause the rest of us are wonderingWhat on earth we missedIf you’re happy and you know itStomp your feet real loudThe rest of could use some cheering up right now
Oh please, shoot us upWith something shiny and quickWe like our thrills dirt cheapAnd our irony thickOh whatever, never mind,We’re just crying for helpI guess we’ll heal the old fashioned wayAnd do it ourselves
Oh this is all we knowOh tragic and miserableWe’re not cynics, we just don’t believe a word you sayWe’re not critics, we just hate it all anywayOh this is all we’ve gotOh we do what we’ve been taughtWe’re not cynics, we just don’t believe a word you sayWe’re not critics, we just hate it all anyway
Sometimes i think we push your buttons just for funSometimes i think our kind of crazy has already been doneWe’re a copy of a copy, everything we swore we’d not beYeah, the truth hurts, but it hasn’t stung enough to stop me
