Wishing for Contentment Lyrics

Well, you know sometimes
I find myselfWishing for contentment
Hoping for relentment
Venting my resentment
On the happy few, on the happy few, yeahAwaiting resolution
And dreams of restitution
But finding retribution
Is just another thing to do'Cause you've got to keep yourself busy
Visit aunt Lizzy
Just see how she's beenBut when you're making a late run
Two judgmental matrons retort
See what I mean?A seeming reprobation
Perhaps, it's my vocation
Oh, nauseous elation
Comes to mind but fades so soon, ahWishing for contentment
Hoping for relentment
Venting my resentment
On the happy fewYes, I'm awaiting resolution

And dreams of restitution, restitution
Finding retribution
Is just another thingYou've got to keep yourself busy
Visit aunt Lizzy
Just see how she's beenBut when you're making a late run
Two judgmental matrons retort
See what I mean?A seeming reprobation
Perhaps, it's my vocation
Oh, nauseous elation
Comes to mind but fades so soonIt fades so soon
It fades so soon
