Everybody Loves a Happy Ending

Toe the line

Toe the line

Wake up, your time is nearly over

No more the supernova

And no action guaranteed

Wake up, you've had an operation

Ideals above your station

Too much reality

Think about the waste of time spending

Watching Mother Nature's knees bending

Everybody loves a happy ending

Wake up, you're on your own agenda

Give up the great pretender

With baby eyes of green

Wake up, you're holding on to nothing

You know you're only bluffing

As dead as autumn leaves

Think about the waste of time spending

Watching Mother Nature's knees bending

Everybody loves a happy ending

Don't you just love a happy ending?

Oh yeah, well so do I

And all your love will shine on everyone

The darkness of the day

A curse in every way

You try to see the light

But you don't know why

Don't know why

They tell you on the phone

To give your god a bone

And grow a set of wings like a butterfly

The guardian at the gate

Reminds you that you're late

You try to take your time

But you toe the line

Toe the line

The children of the world

And daddy's little girl

The grass is always greener on the other side

So stay and breathe new lies

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up, wake up

Everything is moving faster than you think

Your pen is running out of ink

Fill up your bath and kitchen sink

They're really kicking up the stink

You've never found the missing link

You should be happy and to think

You're rending members out of sync

And God is whiskered as a wink

Once more are different to the brink

All your love will shine on everyone
