Tell me again how your life is so hard
As you weep in your ivory tower
I'll listen to your superficial complaints
As I struggle on hour by hour
Tell me again how you groan and you ache
How your years have seen nothing but pain
Perhaps I'd listen if you knew how it felt
For tears to be common as rain
Tell me again how you've lived through the worst
And how no-one else has it so bad
Well I'll tell you right now that you would be wrong
And your moaning is making me sad
If you'd close your mouth and listen for once
Then maybe, to you I'll confide
For some of us don't like to tell the whole world
But bottle our angst up inside.
