Jonathan Fallow Lyrics - Pain

Witness Jonathan Fallow, sit & stare, 

He's a cartoon engineer extraordinaire 

He's a tatterdemalion of dubious means, 

Paper champion pencil making scenes 

You see objects he sees life like 

Bulbous-eyed homunculus, half boy half rhinoceros 

People say he's useless, it seems like he's useless 

Everyday he's useless, sometimes he feels sad 

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time 

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes 

What about social standing? What about all his goals? 

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul 

Witness Jonathan Fallow in his past years 

Work constituents give him wild cheers 

He's a natural born successful man 

No one illustrates like Jonathan can 

Stand in awe & watch him draw 

Chinese black belts chopping blocks eggplant head jack in the box 

Now he seems so useless, People say he's useless, 

Sometimes he gets mad 

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time 

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes 

What about social standing? What about all his goals? 

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul 

Witness Jonathan Fallow's darkest day, 

Watch the people he penned go far away 

He knows that "publish or perish" is the number one rule 

No one ever told him the truth could be so horribly cruel 

No way out & no way over... 

Bulbous-eyed homunculi, half boy half rhinoceri, 

Oddball creeps out of ink & lead bouncing on their paper bed 

So when you see him on the street, downtown and down and out 

Don't say he's useless 

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time 

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes 

What about social standing? What about all his goals? 

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul 

Witness Jonathan Fallow wasting talent & time 

Nobody understands why there's happiness in his eyes 

What about social standing? What about all his goals? 

Cold, inanimate objects have no claim on his soul...
