God knows what for

And it ll cut me down to size

Stupidity tries

Everything here is free

Everything but you and me

This painting never dries

Stupidity tries

So then a shoulder

Raised a cheer

Coloring the sky with ash

Because they found some privateer

To sail across the sea of trash

The enemy is within

Don t confuse me with him

The truth is otherwise

Stupidity tries

And so i go from floor to floor

Looking for a port of call

Another drunk conquistador

Conquering the governor s ball

I couldn t think of a thing

That i hope tomorrow brings

Oh what a surprise

Stupidity tries
