Sometimes It's Okay....

A Smurf on vacation
I saw one the other day
But he looked more like my cousin
He's not really my cousin though
I've just known him for a long time
Actually, I haven't really known him for a long time
It just seems that way cause he gets on my nerves
He gets on my nerves
He gets on my nerves like flies get on my nerves at a picnic
Like people chewing popcorn loudly in movie theatres
Or like people who always have their brights on when they're driving
I hate that
I would punch them
But then they would sue me
And then I'd have NEGATIVE zero dollars
I don't know what it all means anyway
Do you?
Of course not
Even if you think you do
I've had it all before
But then, I never really had anything
And now I have nothing
And I think I have everything
Oh well
It's just how you look at it
Or maybe you don't look at it at all
Maybe you should
Maybe then you wouldn't be so stupid
Maybe you would
I don't know
But you don't either, so I don't care
And even if you did, I still wouldn't care
Do you know what I mean?
Of course not
But If I tried to write a song about it, It would just come off as condemning
Cause you're so touchy
Who can tell you anything?
You're never wrong are you?
Everyone else in the whole world, but you, must be wrong
What do you know?
What do you think?
What do I care?..
