I never knew what everybody meant By endless, hopeless, bleak despair Until one day when I found out The first time I ever left my house It saw me and followed me home And stayed with me for my whole life For years and years I wandered the earth Condemned to a life of bleak despair Then, one day, I looked around And found it had disappeared Hopeless bleak despair It was always there And then, one day, it disappeared In a puff of smoke In an unceremonious way One day, it disappeared All I had ever wanted in my life Was only to be free of it It drove away my family It made me lose my job Whenever anybody saw it They'd say "get out of here" For years and years I wandered the earth Sick of my life, looking forward to death Then, one day, I looked around And found it had disappeared Hopeless bleak despair It was always there And then, one day, it disappeared In a puff of smoke In an unceremonious way One day, it disappeared Hopeless bleak despair Hopeless bleak despair Hopeless bleak despair For years and years I wandered the earth Until I died and went to hell But my despair had ascended to heaven That's how I finally got rid of it Hopeless bleak despair It was always there And then, one day, it disappeared In a puff of smoke In an unceremonious way One day, it disappeared Hopeless bleak despair It was always there And then, one day, it disappeared In a puff of smoke In an unceremonious way One day, it disappeared
