The Happy Song Aurelio Voltaire

Spoken:
A Buddhist on the subway tells me that
What you want is rarely, if ever, what you need
And of course, I argue the point like a completely self-righteous idiot

Sung:
I was looking for perfection
And it found me, right between the eyes
All this time we spent in bliss
You know, like all things, it has to fade away
The devil says beware
'Cause when you ask, you might get what you want
The devil, he may care
When you ask, you might get what you want

Spoken:
So now I spend most of my time waiting for things to happen
Letting the wind take me where it will

Sung:
Only when it's done do you lose the veil
You get so blind you never see the light coming down the tracks
It keeps me hanging from a thread
Devil drives the train
Devil pass me by
