You Will Be Happy

There is a number in the ether And what you would do for that imaginary number On a board game of Snakes and Ladders Yeah, that's right It's time to cash in all those cheques All those times you felt like a dumbass And so the god of shame decided upon the clouds And with a direct line to the centre of your skull You got given the word And the word was You will have nothing But you will be happy You will have nothing But you will be happy Now there's a taste Of this new devil's liquor And you can see how it's extracted from the soul But for the soul to die You need a machine A machine so small it can fit in the palm of your hand You will barely notice the death It will come silently in the middle off the day As you walk down the street And as you see the sign And as your hand start to tremble And the soul slips out of your fingertips You will know You will have nothing But you will be happy You will have nothing But you will be happy You will have You will have Nothing Nothing You will have You are You will have and baby you are Nothing Nothing Nothing It's all a pile of rubble Because you have And you are And you always will be Nothing Nothing Come on you know Don't be sad about it now Nothing Because you have And you are And you always will be Nothing Nothing Nothing
