Reminder Song

Now preachers and teachers and scholarly brains

Have tried to provide a truth that explains

Why shit can go so badly

Well I've had a helping or two of the blues

But I go back for seconds and thirds cause I choose

To stomach sorrow gladly

For I have a theory that might sound crass

And to that hypothesis I raise a glass

Here's to the chaos

The heartache and strain

Three cheers for agony

A toast to the pain

Hats off to everything that leaves a scar

For reminding me who my friends are

Though I'm not religious, I've always believed

There must be a weirdo up there who conceived

This magic, tragic planet

And so I'll forgive 'em for adding the parts

That savage and ravage our bones and our hearts

And hardens souls to granite

For when at the end of a harrowing day

You'll see who shows up at your doorstep to say

Here's to the chaos

The heartache and strain

Three cheers for agony

A toast to the pain

Hats off to everything that leaves a scar

For reminding me who my friends are

No it's never gonna, never gonna end, no, no, no

It's never gonna, never gonna end, no, no, no

Not the misery nor the company, my friend

So fill each other's cup

And never give it up

Cause here's to the hoping

When odds are a joke

Three cheers for foolish dreams

When everything's broke

Hats off to every 'close, but no cigar'

Here's to the chaos

The heartache and strain

Three cheers for agony

A toast to my pain

Hats off to everything that leaves a scar

For reminding me

Who my friends are
