Question:
C’mon, get up. U need to get some action
(“Hey.. wo.. what…?” is my 1st reaction…)
Hurry up, put some cloths on,
It’s enough already! U have been wachin ‘Lost’ all week long…
This is your personal high, in feelin ‘Low’…
U look miserable, what’s the matter, Bro?
I mean, how could an easy, rugged, fella like u…
Go from ‘swearing by Die Hard’ to ‘watchin Half Moon’
And just when we r coming to terms with the ‘Mr. Lonely’…
U switch from ‘Love Actually’ to ‘Atonement’ to ‘if only’…
What happened to u man?? I’m a lil’ curious…
Let’s spill some drinks over it, Why… so… serious?
Ohh… No No No, Don’t give me that look…

Answer:
“U know what is wrong with this world?” I stutter…
(“Oh, here we go again…” he says)
Everybody likes to feel sorry for others…
No No, everybody WANTS to feel sorry for others
Folks here, cannot get enough of self-pity…
Their eyes lit up, when others’ lives become messed up, and shitty
Always ready to turn any rocking boat into Titanic,
When, there is a potential Kate and Leo in the frame…
They particularly love this part,
‘Cause now they can read ‘Chicken Soup for the Soul’ to them…
I mean, what sick says shit like –
“What doesn’t kill u, makes u stronger!”
And extend our misery, a wee bit longer…
This is not cool Man… not cool.
