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
