"A Birthday Present" lyrics

"A Birthday Present"

Everybody thinks it's something real
Right until the devil drinks it
O-li-o
O-li-o

Everything's fate and spinning wheels
Everybody wants their princes
O-li-o
O-li-o

There's no sense in waiting for a swift completion to come
That invitation is all I'm waiting on

The tedious thoughts of the head of state
Is seldom ever worth revealing
O-li-o
O-li-o

Indelible stains on the human race
You idiots, fakes and murderers
O-li-o
O-li-o

There's no sense in waiting for a swift completion never comes
That invitation is all I'm waiting on

Everybody thinks the end is here
How am I to tell the difference
O-li-o
O-li-o

Wish everybody a happy new year
There's varying results predicted
O-li-o
O-li-o

There's no sense in waiting for a swift completion to come
That invitation is all I'm waiting on
