Since I Gave Up Hope I Feel Alot Better (Album) - Steve Taylor[00:00:00]
Enter the young idealist[00:00:17]
Chasing dragons to slay[00:00:18]
Exit the hustler[00:00:22]
Packing up his MBA[00:00:23]
Freshmen scream in a classroom[00:00:27]
Was there a sound[00:00:30]
First degree in the vacuum[00:00:32]
I'm on college ground[00:00:34]
Took a class[00:00:37]
Big fun[00:00:38]
Modern ethics 101[00:00:38]
First day learn why[00:00:40]
Ethics really don't apply[00:00:41]
Prof says one trait[00:00:42]
Takes us to a higher state[00:00:44]
Drug free pure bliss[00:00:45]
Get your pencils copy this[00:00:46]
Life unwinds like a cheap sweater[00:00:48]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:00:50]
And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter[00:00:52]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:00:55]
Top of the class sits ernest[00:01:08]
He was brightest and best[00:01:10]
Till the professor lured him[00:01:13]
To the hopeless nest[00:01:15]
Now he lives for the shortcut[00:01:18]
Like a citizen should[00:01:20]
Tells the class with a wink[00:01:23]
Only the young die good[00:01:25]
He says ideals uncouth[00:01:28]
Fatalism needs youth[00:01:30]
Eat well floss right[00:01:31]
Keep the hungry out of sight[00:01:32]
Save face nip and tuck[00:01:34]
Praise yourself and pass the buck[00:01:35]
Don't forget the best advice[00:01:36]
Everybody's get a price[00:01:38]
Life unwinds like a cheap sweater[00:01:39]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:01:41]
And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter[00:01:44]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:01:46]
While the world winds down to a final prayer[00:01:49]
Nothing soothes quicker than complete despair[00:01:52]
I predict by dinner I won't even care[00:01:55]
Since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:01:57]
Nazis plead in a courtroom[00:02:07]
Pardon me boys[00:02:10]
Profits fall in a boardroom[00:02:12]
Did they make a noise[00:02:14]
Someone spreads an affliction[00:02:17]
Company's nice[00:02:20]
Someone sells an addiction[00:02:23]
Puts your soul on ice[00:02:25]
Half wits knock heads[00:02:29]
Candidates in double beds[00:02:30]
Good guys defect[00:02:32]
I can't precisely recollect[00:02:34]
Teacher's pet theory's fine[00:02:34]
If you're born without a spine[00:02:36]
Can't you spell wrong[00:02:37]
Sing it to him papa John[00:02:38]
While the world winds down to a final prayer[00:02:49]
Nothing soothes quicker than complete despair[00:02:52]
I predict by dinner I won't even care[00:02:55]
Since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:02:58]
Life unwinds like a cheap sweater[00:03:02]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:03:04]
And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter[00:03:07]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:03:09]
Life unwinds like a cheap sweater[00:03:12]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:03:14]
And the truth gets blurred like a wet letter[00:03:17]
But since I gave up hope I feel a lot better[00:03:19]
