Mr Spoons

Every day's your last day
I've always been taught that way
That every day's the first day of the rest of your life
Don't be scared of danger
And never talk to strangers
Don't ever allow them to see you cry
Try to know the answer
Before you hear the question
Try to solve problems before they arise
Never show your weaknesses
Hold your cards close to your chest
Never burden others with what's on your mind
And you'll be killing yourself
Day by day
You won't see that you are blind
You'll be killing yourself in a slow, slow way
Thinking that you're only killing time
If you've been a good boy
Buy yourself a new toy
Get yourself a motorcycle, gun and a knife
What you need's a big car
To drive you to the big bar
Mr Spoons went out for coffee
And came back with a wife
And he'll be killing himself
Day by day
He won't see that he is blind
He'll be killing himself in a slow, slow way
Thinking that he's only killing time
He'll be the one
The one that's controlled
The one who'll feel guilty
For she's getting old
And he'll panic for her
With every second that's gone
And he'll agree
Though he knows that she's wrong
And it's the way of the world
And it's always the same
And there's nothing you can do
And there's no-one you can blame
And it's the way of the world
And its sad and its true
But it will happen to you
Just like Mr Spoons
If you've been a good boy
Buy yourself a new toy
Get yourself a motorcycle, gun and a knife
What you need's a big car
To drive you to the big bar
Mr Spoons went out for coffee
And came back with a wife
And he'll be killing himself
Day by day
He won't see that he is blind
He'll be killing himself in a slow, slow way
Thinking that he's only killing time
And he'll be killing himself
Day by day
He won't see that he is blind
He'll be killing himself in a slow, slow way
Thinking that he's only killing time
