Pessimism (Song)

1.

The pearls in their pig trough they see
but do not understand;
its a self-fulfilling prophesy
'cause the futures in their hands.

 

2.
And Noah is their weatherman;
keeps painting the map blue
and 'cause they believe they never can
so it keeps on coming true.

 

Chorus:
I don't need the pessimism
that you try to pass as wisdom.
You gripe about the way they rob them
but your prophesies are half the problem

 

You sound like my television
telling me that hell has risen.
Its a psychological war
but just which side are you fighting for?

 

2.
Old rebels would turn in their graves
if they'd heard what you'd said
when theres a chance to free the slaves
you think you'll stay in bed.

 

3.
I'm sick and tired of Goliath
so on David I will bet
I will take the road less travelled by
and see how far I can get.

 

Chorus:
I don't need the pessimism
that you try to pass as wisdom.
You gripe about the way they rob them
but your prophesies are half the problem

 

You sound like my television
telling me that hell has risen.
Its a psychological war
but just which side are you fighting for?
