Fly in the Ointment, Pt. 1
It's an ancient proposition
You can't win for losing
Ever since the world began
People started making plans
Working hard to try to see them through
But in the end, they all got screwed
Fly in the ointment
And it's stinkin' up the joint
Can't conceal my disappointment
There's just no end to the bad news
It's the wisdom of the ages
Premonitions from the sages
Whenever something right goes wrong
It never seems to take too long
Before the whole damn thing just goes to shit
Just like the lyrics of this song
Fly in the ointment
And it's stinkin' up the joint
Can't conceal my disappointment
There's just no end to the bad news
Say it!
Fly in the ointment and I hope you understand
The purge of the nations is upon the common man
The whole situation is beyond your command
A turn of events is going to do you in
I said yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh-huh, oh yeah
You can't win for losing
Ever since the world began
People started making plans
Working hard to try to see them through
But in the end, they all got screwed
Fly in the ointment
And it's stinkin' up the joint
Can't conceal my disappointment
There's just no end to the bad news
It's the wisdom of the ages
Premonitions from the sages
Whenever something right goes wrong
It never seems to take too long
Before the whole damn thing just goes to shit
Just like the lyrics of this song
Fly in the ointment
And it's stinkin' up the joint
Can't conceal my disappointment
There's just no end to the bad news
Say it!
Fly in the ointment and I hope you understand
The purge of the nations is upon the common man
The whole situation is beyond your command
A turn of events is going to do you in
I said yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh-huh, oh yeah
