Dark was the night, cold was the ground...

Everybody I met seemed to be a rank stranger...

So many ways of communicating, can't get in touch with who we're hating...

Who says it's goodgoodgoodgood to be alive? Same ones who keep it a perpetual jive...

I'm not so self-assured...

Time, they say is the answer...

Born cool...or does he have to work at it?
