You don't know, so don't say you do --

You don't.

You might think that things will change,

But take my word --

They won't

You paint a lovely picture,

But reality intrudes

With a message for you

And it's real bad news



I was undecided like you

At first

But I could not stem the tide of overwhelm

And thirst

You try to keep it going, but a lot of avenues

Just aren't open to you

when you're real bad news



I've got love and anger

They come as a pair

You can take your chances

But buyer beware

And I won't

Make you feel bad

When I show you

This bog ball of sad isn't

Worth even filling with air



And baby, let me tell you

You can get some things confused

Like whose secrets are whose

And that's real bad news

Real bad news

Real bad news
