Lyrics by Wilton. Music by Powell and Wilton. Arranged by Dwarf Nebula.

Thank you for bringing me this opportunity to grow a little stronger
I guess I got a little soft, surrounding myself with love and laughter
I shouldn’t have been surprised when your pretenses finally faltered
I fell for your sucker punch: Evolution is a cruel headmaster

And though you seem like just a waste of flesh right now to me
If I give in to hating you, then I hand you victory
So I can put some meaning into this existentially
Leave you to your own devices: Turn the other other cheek.

Chorus:

‘Cause you’re only insulting yourself with such verbiage
Apparently you’ve got issues and lessons to learn
You’ re here to make sure no kind deed goes unpunished
But there’s only just so many bridges you can burn.

Tell me how there got to be so many chumps in the world.
The saints have all ascended, life’s a revolver for the scum of the earth
Killing each other for cash or ground or what we think is God.
You fuck them all over to get there. Tell me what’s your fortune worth?

But you’re free to bite the hand that feeds you, even when it’s yours.
Don’cha know when you raise a fist, there is little you can grasp
It all comes down to you: making things better or making them worse.
Your recent behavior leaves you well behind by karmic lapse.

(Chorus)
