The Great "Ism-Schism" Shuffle
No receipt investigation
Working hard, perfectionism goes right through you
Optimism misses this but pessimism never wins
No time for reason, just be okay, okay
Not okay
And I like the way you take me out for a while
Make me forget just to remember
What I am, anyway
Mannerisms mechanize
Into patterns you don't like
And so I follow like a dog
Howling out until I'm hollow
Narcissism takes your hand
Blindsides expectation as I
Look upon the burning traffic
Hands up, turn around
Bound in a collision crisis
Morals dictate that I mean it
Skepticism says that I'm not sorry
Why don't you feel it?
Why not turn back time for me?
You think you're so heroic, don't you?
I guess I can't take the criticism
Caught in the ism-schism
Forget the realism
I'll never let it go
Working hard, perfectionism goes right through you
Optimism misses this but pessimism never wins
No time for reason, just be okay, okay
Not okay
And I like the way you take me out for a while
Make me forget just to remember
What I am, anyway
Mannerisms mechanize
Into patterns you don't like
And so I follow like a dog
Howling out until I'm hollow
Narcissism takes your hand
Blindsides expectation as I
Look upon the burning traffic
Hands up, turn around
Bound in a collision crisis
Morals dictate that I mean it
Skepticism says that I'm not sorry
Why don't you feel it?
Why not turn back time for me?
You think you're so heroic, don't you?
I guess I can't take the criticism
Caught in the ism-schism
Forget the realism
I'll never let it go
