[Verse 1]
Our naked bodies go on trial
Just for laughing at the joke
Just for saying of the bargain
What any salesgirl already knows
Most of us old men die in the firing line
Just waiting for our number to be called
I guess time just makes fools of us all

[Verse 2]
The king regales his stepsons
When he's loaded as a gun
Says, "A real man is like a country
You need a map to find your one"
Now why do you suppose you must approach the throne
With its back up against the wall?
I guess time just makes fools of us all

[Verse 3]
The greatish minds of my generation
Gladly conscripted in war
Of defending any Goliath
That would darken the door
Now with your genius for picking battles
It's no wonder every helmet is too small
I guess time just makes fools of us all
I guess time just makes fools of us all
