Smashing Young Man

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Help me, I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
Help me, I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man

[Bridge]
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

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Help me, I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man

Help me, I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man
