Lyrics
Mr. Tragedy, it’s plain to see
Ain't nothin' in this world for you & me
Mr. Tragedy, open your eyes
This whole world gonna pass you by
Tarot cards and sleeping pills don't lie
One last smoke might just make you cry
There's a great big world outside your living room
There's a clear blue sky outside that's killing you
Mr. Tragedy, it’s plain to see
Ain't nothin' in this world for you & me
Mr. Tragedy, open your eyes
This whole world gonna pass you by
Black cats cross your path in the park
Pianos fall upon you in the dark
That car that almost hit you was a hearse
That girl that almost kissed you was a nurse
Mr. Tragedy, it’s plain to see
Ain't nothin' in this world for you & me
Mr. Tragedy, open your eyes
This whole world gonna pass you by
It's raining on my house
But none of the others
All the girls you ever loved
Had vengeful brothers
The room's on fire! The baby's waking!
Mr. Tragedy! Stop hesitating!
Anywhere you hang yourself is home
Silence sounds so good when you're alone
The coffee is so black it could be wine
The end is so damn near it's out of time
Mr. Tragedy, it’s plain to see
Ain't nothin' in this world for you & me
Mr. Tragedy, open your eyes
This whole world gonna pass you by
