No One Wants To Play - Tub Ring

Try to impress them with what you they want

Your methods are subtle, just like an elephant

Besides all the retreads and all the arguments

You can’t make decisions based on feeling

Friendships fall away from this

Adhering to your politics

So prod and pry and give your ideas

It doesn’t matter 'til you get your own way

Once again your crown is tarnished

Cause you’re the winner of a game that no one wants to play don’t celebrate

just yet cause I think that you forget

That no one wants to play

Rules as suggestions because they aren’t real

Some from the get go, and some from how you feel

You play all positions and show them how it’s done

Soon you’re a figurehead lost on everyone

If there’s a theory I know there’s a consequence

I’m sure that you’ve learned now you can’t stay on the fence

Just taking opinions until the words are bent

Voice of an angel, thoughts a serpent

There was a boy who woke from a dream one day

He thought it over and planned out everything

He wouldn’t rest 'til his waking dream came true

And there were choices that he knew must be made

The fallen silenced by all the accolades

And so he delegates the many things to do

So many things to do
