[00:01.38] There's no charity in you
[00:05.42] and that surprises me
[00:08.45] I guess I thought you were a golden idol
[00:13.67] cause I called you majesty
[00:17.16] on the balustrade
[00:19.78] you watched me hunt for tips
[00:22.51] I was obliged to pick up from the passing trade
[00:26.15] Hey, kids, look at this
[00:29.31] it's the fall of the world's own optimist
[00:33.34] I could get back up if you insist
[00:37.25] but you'll have to ask politely
[00:40.86] cause the eggshells I've been treading
[00:45.09] couldn't spare me a beheading
[00:49.03] and I'll know I had it coming
[00:52.83] from a Caesar who was only slumming
[00:57.30] Hey, kids look at this
[01:00.67] it's the fall of the world's own optimist
[01:05.24]
[01:08.73] Well, I could have objections
[01:12.54] which you could override
[01:15.59] but what's the point, we're only flogging the horse when
[01:21.24] the horseman has up and died
[01:24.50] once I testified
[01:27.21] and swore I'd never leave a stone unturned
[01:31.04] I bet you're really glad that I lied
[01:33.43] Hey, kids, look at this
[01:36.69] it's the fall of the world's own optimist
[01:40.62] I could get back up if you insist
[01:44.54] but you'll have to ask politely
[01:48.25] cause the eggshells I've been treading
[01:52.49] couldn't spare me a beheading
[01:56.19] and I'll know I had it coming
[02:00.21] from a Caesar who was only slumming
[02:04.67] Hey, kids, look at this
[02:08.06] it's the fall of the world's own optimist
[02:14.70]
[02:30.26] Hey, kids, look at this
[02:33.52] it's the fall of the world's own optimist
[02:37.57] I could get back up if you insist
[02:41.37] but you'll have to ask politely
[02:45.39] yes, you'll have to ask politely
[02:49.33] yes, you'll have to ask
[02:55.31]
