Catch 22

They’ll get you when you’re young

Teach you how to be a man

(Stand up!)

Romanticizing

(Bigger and better!)

But it’s never enough, is it?

And you’re damned if you do

And you’re damned if you don’t

Let’s celebrate anyway

What you do what you do

What you do what you do

What you do what you do

What you do

And do it for me too…

Once you come to accept

The vague sense of defeat

Eating away inside

You’re a pig in a pen waiting

To face the knife

Dead Dead Dead

And you’re damned if you do

And you’re damned if you don’t

Let’s celebrate anyway

What you do what you do

What you do what you do

What you do what you do

What you do

And do it for me too…

We don’t need another hero

Not another fool that you can drain and tear to shreds

Oh strip him down

Sell him back to that

From which he came

Ever so embarrassing

Someone to connect the pieces

Someone who will speak his mind

Someone who will carry what we’re all afraid to really say

How infuriating and obscene

Apologetic in absurdum

No-one wants to feel
