The Comedy Of Life
Navigating Life's Absurdities with The Doomsday Party
Lyrics
It's the comedy of life, oh no
Expressing the ironic and humorous nature of life.
The more I see, the less I believe
Growing skepticism or cynicism with increased life experiences.
No aces left up my sleeve
No hidden advantages or tricks remaining.
The world's a stage and I'm stumbling with rage on it
Life is compared to a stage, and the speaker is struggling with anger or frustration on it.
My name's become a well known joke
The speaker's name has become a widely recognized source of amusement.
My reputation gone up in smoke
The speaker's reputation has been ruined.
I'm the George Costanza of the 21st century
Comparing oneself to George Costanza, a fictional character known for comedic misfortunes.
I got a feeling that I cannot shake
Having an unsettling intuition or premonition.
The comedy of life is getting hard to take
Finding it increasingly difficult to cope with the absurdities of life.
I need a piece of some sweet caress
Desiring affection or comfort.
It's a foolish madness
Characterizing life as irrational or senseless.
Lost in a millennial, sell-it-all future
Feeling lost in a future focused on selling everything.
A technological moronical creature
Describing oneself as a foolish and technologically dependent creature.
I sold my possessions to feed my obsession with you
Sacrificing belongings for an obsessive love or desire.
But I'm told to keep keeping on
Advised to persevere despite challenges.
Reading self-help books from Amazon
Turning to self-help literature for guidance.
Saying beautiful days are ahead,
Being optimistic about better days ahead, despite uncertainty.
I just don't know when
Uncertain about when positive changes will occur.
I got a feeling that I cannot shake
Reiterating the persistent unsettling feeling.
The comedy of life is getting hard to take
The challenges and absurdities of life are becoming overwhelming.
I need a piece of some sweet caress
Seeking solace or comfort.
It's a foolish madness
Reinforcing the idea of life as irrational or senseless.
It's the comedy of life, oh no
Repeating the theme of life as a comedy, emphasizing its absurdity.
I got a feeling that I cannot shake
Reiterating the persistent unsettling feeling.
The comedy of life is getting hard to take
The challenges and absurdities of life are becoming overwhelming.
I need a piece of some sweet caress
Seeking solace or comfort.
It's a foolish madness
Reinforcing the idea of life as irrational or senseless.
I got a feeling that I cannot shake
Reiterating the persistent unsettling feeling.
I got a feeling that I cannot shake
Underlining the lasting impact of the unsettling feeling.
