Lyrics
0:09It's a funny thing about humility
0:11As soon as you know you're being humble
0:15You're no longer humble
0:17It's a funny thing about life
0:19You've got to give up your life to be alive
0:26You've got to suffer to know compassion
0:30You can't want nothing if you want satisfaction
0:42Tonight the world looks like a different place
0:51Tonight the moon is turning in its place
0:59Tonight we find ourselves alone at last
1:09Watch out for the trap door
1:14Watch out for the trap door
1:47It's a funny thing about love
1:53The harder you try to be loved
1:55The less lovable you are
1:59It's a funny thing about pride
2:01When you're being proud
2:03You should be ashamed
2:07You find only pain if you seek after pleasure
2:12You work like a slave if you seek out the leisure
2:24Tonight the world looks like a different place
2:32Tonight the moon is shining on your face
2:40Tonight we find ourselves alone at last
2:51Watch out for the trap door
2:55Watch out for the trap door
3:07Watch out for the trap door
3:11Watch out for the trap door
3:15Watch out for the trap door
3:20Watch out for the trap door
It's a funny thing about humility As soon as you know you're being humble You're no longer humble It's a funny thing about life You've got to give up your life to be alive You've got to suffer to know compassion You can't want nothing if you want satisfaction Tonight the world looks like a different place Tonight the moon is turning in its place Tonight we find ourselves alone at last Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door It's a funny thing about love The harder you try to be loved The less lovable you are It's a funny thing about pride When you're being proud You should be ashamed You find only pain if you seek after pleasure You work like a slave if you seek out the leisure Tonight the world looks like a different place Tonight the moon is shining on your face Tonight we find ourselves alone at last Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door
