Spinning your yarn and push each word The race is on to be absurd Around a myth everything turns So all the words go unheard Romeo loves Juliet so much It's Hollywood in double Dutch Married at the steak and seafood place They've got anger written on their face Living out their dream Covered in ice cream Their convictions don't convince me Just a mouthful of glee don't convince me Just a mouthful of glee Things you have don't make you happy Things that you want don't come your way Things that you've lost are gone forever While you're watching the weather Stories we hear tear us apart What we believe is happening Words are distorted, you'd never think Pushing them to the very brink Living out their dream Covered in ice cream Their convictions don't convince me Just a mouthful of glee The oval blots of scarlet foam Illuminate the silver dome We're no longer descending Now there's no time for a happy ending
