Have you ever shed a tear?
They said
No
Said I
That's good
For in the songs and storybooks
Stay always
They should
Have you ever seen the sun?
They said
No
Said I
That's great
We can't spill time on sunsets
We don't have time
To wait
Have you ever told untruth?
They said
No
Said I
That's nice
A corporation of our size
Cannot stand
On lies
Are you ever ill?
They said
No
Said I
That's swell
For in this nation oh so wide
Everyone
Is well
Have you changed your mind?
They said
Yes
Said I
And fled
For in a world like this I am
Better of
As dead
Will you shut your mouth?
They said
No
Said I
But, hey
If they want to they can try
Go on
Wish me away
They said
No
Said I
That's good
For in the songs and storybooks
Stay always
They should
Have you ever seen the sun?
They said
No
Said I
That's great
We can't spill time on sunsets
We don't have time
To wait
Have you ever told untruth?
They said
No
Said I
That's nice
A corporation of our size
Cannot stand
On lies
Are you ever ill?
They said
No
Said I
That's swell
For in this nation oh so wide
Everyone
Is well
Have you changed your mind?
They said
Yes
Said I
And fled
For in a world like this I am
Better of
As dead
Will you shut your mouth?
They said
No
Said I
But, hey
If they want to they can try
Go on
Wish me away
