Edgar and the Hard Facts of Life
At the train station
SUN peeping in the SKY
Edgar has a sensation!
To end it all and die
And he don’t know why,
And he don’t know why,
And he don’t know why,
His whole life is a LIE
But he’s getting bye
And as the TRAIN comes near
There’s great tension and FEAR
That he’ll JUMP ahead
Before the TRAIN
And wind up DEAD
FUTILE AND VAIN
Poor Edgar sold his soul
For an office with a view
But he’s miserable
Doesn’t even have a clue
His fundamental flaw
He dare not mention
For he is in AWE
MONEY, MONEY, MONEY
MORE, MORE, MORE
He pimps out his mind
Life left him behind
Of that he is sure
Trains And Whistles Thorns And Thistles
