Smashing Young Man lyrics

Beggar's description

Of what I've been missing

Exploit your position

Don't think I didn't listen

Hey, I hope you're feeling

A little better now

Success is so tragic

Pain is your gadget

Your tongue's just lashing

Just bitching by habit

Hey, I hope you're feeling

A little purer now

Hey, I hope you're feeling

Securer now

Help me, I plea

I don't understand

Your ways and your means

You smashing young man

Help me to see

The good you have planned

You're wearing me thin

You smashing young man

You preach synthetic-like

Peace is an oversight

It's nothing to ignite

Your self-lit spotlight

Hey, I hope you're feeling

A little special now

Hey, I want to tell you

I think you're special, now

I don't recall asking for guidance

I don't recall wanting to

I don't recall bowing before you

But I'm so impressed

With the kindness in your attitude
