Ad Frank

Help is on the way
At latest tomorrow
We need it today
You used to be helpful
Familiar and hollow
A pillar of sorrow

You used to be cool
You used to be cool
You used to be cool
You used to be cool

You used to be everything but callous, boring and cruel

Now you don't mean to be
But you are
You don't mean to be
You don't mean to be

You pissed on my torch
I guess I should thank you
For not letting me scorch
I would be elated
If you told yourself "Hang me,
I was better off angry"

You used to be cool
You used to be cool
You used to be cool
You used to be cool

You used to stave off making self-absorption your rule

Now you don't mean to
But you do
You don't mean to
You don't mean to

You don't mean to be
But you are
You don't mean to be
You don't mean to be
