Pain (American Band) - Jonathan Fallow lyrics

rate me

Witness Jonathan Fallow, sit & stare,

He's a cartoon engineer extraordinaire

He's a tatterdemalion of dubious means,

Paper champion pencil making scenes

You see objects he sees life like

Bulbous-eyed homunculus, half boy half rhinoceros

People say he's useless, it seems like he's useless

Everyday he's useless, sometimes he feels sad

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes

What about social standing? What about all his goals?

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul

Witness Jonathan Fallow in his past years

Work constituents give him wild cheers

He's a natural born successful man

No one illustrates like Jonathan can

Stand in awe & watch him draw

Chinese black belts chopping blocks eggplant head jack in the box

Now he seems so useless, People say he's useless,

Sometimes he gets mad

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes

What about social standing? What about all his goals?

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul

Witness Jonathan Fallow's darkest day,

Watch the people he penned go far away

He knows that "publish or perish" is the number one rule

No one ever told him the truth could be so horribly cruel

No way out & no way over...

Bulbous-eyed homunculi, half boy half rhinoceri,

Oddball creeps out of ink & lead bouncing on their paper bed

So when you see him on the street, downtown and down and out

Don't say he's useless

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes

What about social standing? What about all his goals?

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes

What about social standing? What about all his goals?

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul...
