lyrics

Bright eyes and empty head
Days are long and full of dread
He's got it in his mind
But the courage he won't find
So he pleases with a smile
Suicide's just not his style
He lives like this day in and out
Trying to see what the fuss is about

Laughter begins after he says with a grin,
"Watch this!"
His mind's bleak and noone listens when he speaks
"Listen up!"
With tongue tied and patience tried,
Lash out!
No relief for the Comedian's grief
Wait and see!

Dim lights in a swirling haze
Abrupt thoughts and thousand-yard gaze
Hard-pressed for simple joys
So he plants himself as a decoy
The Comedian feigns a smirk
His last joke arrives like clockwork
And as the curtains drop
Decides it's time to close up shop

Laughter begins after he says with a grin,
"Watch this!"
His mind's bleak and noone listens when he speaks
"Listen up!"
With tongue tied and patience tried,
Lash out!
No relief for the Comedian's grief
Here comes the punchline

"Got no time for medication
Need a spell for hog inflation
Balls of newt and dick of bat
Presto folks, my cock is fat!"

Waste away
Nobody cares
