Pain (US) - Jonathan Fallow lyrics

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...
