Cynics & Critics Lyrics - Singles - Icon For Hire

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

If you're happy and you know it clap your hands like this 

Cause the rest of us are wondering what on earth we missed 

If you're happy and you know it stomp your feet real loud 

The rest of us could use some cheering up right now 

Oh please, shoot us up with something shiny and quick 

We like our thrills dirt cheap and our irony thick 

Oh whatever, never mind, we're just crying for help 

I guess we'll heal the old fashioned way and do it ourselves 

Oh this is all we know 

Oh tragic and miserable 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

Oh this is all we've got 

Oh we do what we've been taught 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

Sometimes I think we push your buttons just for fun 

Sometimes I think our kind of crazy has already been done 

We're a copy of a copy, everything we swore we'd not be 

Yeah, the truth hurts, but it hasn't strung enough to stop me 

Oh please, can't you give us something better than this 

We've built up a tolerance to all your veteran tricks 

You're busy smiling on cue, when you don't have a clue 

We're a mess and we know it, we want you to know too 

Oh this is all we know 

Oh tragic and miserable 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

Oh this is all we've got 

Oh we do what we've been taught 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

If you're happy and you know it then there might be something wrong with you 

What's the point in holding on when all of us don't want you to 

It'd make us feel better, knowing you'd be stuck forever 

Sick minds stick together, we can stay sick forever 

Oh this is all we know 

Oh tragic and miserable 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

Oh this is all we know 

Oh tragic and miserable 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

Oh this is all we've got 

Oh we do what we've been taught 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway 

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say 

We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
