Do you think everything
Everyone is goin' mental?
It seems to me, it's spiraling
Out of control and it's inevitableWell, don't you think
This time is yours
This time is mine?
It's temperamentalIt seems to me
We're on all fours
Crawling on your knees
Someone help us pleaseOh Jesus Christ almighty
Do I feel alright?
No, not slightly
I wanna get a flatAnd no I can't afford it
It's just those bureaucrats
That won't give me a mortgage
It's very funny 'cause
I got your fucking money
And I'm never gonna get it
Just 'cause of my bad credit
Oh well, I guess I mustn't grumble
I suppose it's just the way
The cookie crumblesOh yes, I'm fine
Everything's just wonderful
I'm having the time of my lifeWell, do you want
Something else
Something newer
Than what we got here?
Well, do you feel
It's all the same
Some sick game
It's so insincere?I wish I could
Change the ways
Of the world
Make it a nice place
Until that day
I guess we stay
Doin' what we do, screwin' who we screwWhy can't I sleep at night?
Gonna say it's gonna be alright
I wanna be able to
Eat spaghetti bolognese
And not feel bad about it
For days and days and daysAll the magazines
They talk about weight loss
If I buy those jeans
I can look like Kate Moss
I know it's not the life that I chose
But I guess that's just
The way that things goOh yes, I'm fine
Everything's just wonderful
I'm having the time of my lifeOh yes, I'm fine
Everything's just wonderful
I'm having the time of my lifeOh Jesus Christ almighty
Do I feel alright?
No, not slightly
I wanna get a flat
And no I can't afford it
It's just those bureaucrats
That won't give me a mortgage
It's very funny 'cause
I got your fucking money
And I'm never gonna get it
Just 'cause of my bad credit
Oh well, I guess I mustn't grumbleI suppose it's just the way
The cookie crumbles
But I guess that's just
The way that things go
I suppose it's just the way
The cookie crumbles
But I guess that's just
The way that things go
But I guess that's just
The way that things go
