You're such a pain in the *** But everybody loves - you - don't understand You thankless son of a ***** You'll never see Why do you want to be free? Is all this love smothering you? Ah, great expectations! Wes, every time I look into your eyes I know what failure looks like Maybe it's my own reflection It is a mirror When you wanna cry me a river These days you won't You hold it in I say - don't! If you won't let it out Someday this flood will drown you But will you listen? Oh no. (Oh, no no no no no) He'll answer all our prayers He's omnipresent Ah, great expectations Lemme show you religion It might help If no, at least you will know That they are pretending But will you listen? Oh no. (oh, no no no no no) There is nothing you don't know!
