Stupid Lesson

Another stupid lesson I didn't want to learn
Standing in the rain waiting for my turn
It's my human condition that makes my world complete
But tonight I just want to go home
And a chance to dry my feet

No-one gets a second chance
No-one knows the reason to the rhyme
It might not make a difference
No-one knows or has that kind of time

Your condescending tone has kept me up at night
I didn't say a word and I'm left with hindsight
Your eyes look right through me
While mine look through the rag
I don't want your cause and I won't wave your flag

No-one gets a second chance
No-one knows the reason to the rhyme
It might not make a difference
No-one knows or has that kind of time

I didn't want to say this but now I know it's true
Inspiration turns to dogma and I wipe it off my shoe
It's my human condition that makes my world complete
But tonight I just want to go home
And a chance to dry my feet

No-one gets a second chance
No-one knows the reason to the rhyme
It might not make a difference
No-one knows or has that kind of time
