that’s my fare
ask me why
i don’t care
two to the one-one
equals two-oh-four-eight
texas won it’s independence in
one-eight-three-six
why does it matter
half empty or half full
how ‘bout five-oh percent
volume contains water
five-oh percent air
that’s my luck
that’s my fare
ask me why
i don’t care
yes or no
hello, goodbye
good or bad
happy and sad
we’re such an optimistic people
and this is my luck
this is my fare
ask god why
i’m too depressed to care
brilliance for ignorance
die to live
villian versus hero
black or white
how ‘bout gray
so few
are the bishops, rooks, or knights
so easily manipulated
us silly pawns
pawn is my luck
pawn is my fare
ask the bugs why
everyone else is too exalted to care
drowning in water
tears from a giant
chained by thread
spinning in sand
i make my own luck
i pick my own fate
and i’ll tell you why
since you do care
