lyrics

The piper will play a soft tune for you
The jester will be a fool
The crowds will cheer upon your arrival
Yet you still whine
Yet you still cry
Yet you still whine
Yet you still cry

You always weep for yourself
You scream out asking why
You lose sleeping worrying about tiny things
As you watch the world go by

When dawn sets in
You wake in your velvet sheets
The sun's rays glittering on your gold
Yet you still moan
Yet you still groan
Yet you still moan
Yet you still groan

You always weep for yourself
You scream out asking why
You lose sleeping worrying about tiny things
As you watch the world go by

You'll die in your riches
That you thought were rags
Bet you still haven't learned
Your complaints will never be heard
Your wish has been granted
Are you finally satisfied
They'll rob your grave
They'll spit on your face
Do you even care

You always weep for yourself
You scream out asking why
You lose sleeping worrying about tiny things
As you watch the world go by
