He's going to screw us over again I don't believe anything he says His intentions they don't matter All that gold on a silver platter So politely we must decline Don't take it wrong you may be fine It's just that I'm a bit of a cynic Sometimes it just doesn't seem fair I see happy people everywhere Why aren't they like me, in despair? Going through life without a care To that easy place I shall resign Where being right is the greatest prize And the king of the land is a cynic All of my life I've fought it Why did God have to make me a cynic Isn't life hard enough as it is? Even though the cup's half full It's the empty part that keeps on pushing through So why do I keep coming back for more? Why should I try when I lose every time? Play by the rules and get charged with a crime Why go on living just to be old and stricken? I never even bother counting my chickens So take comfort in that certain pride Of living a life that was never tried It's always really safe being a cynic
