Big Disappointment

(专辑： Down By The River - 2009)

First Christmas I remember beneath that Christmas tree
Was everything I asked for, wrapped up and bought for me
It was a big disappointment, turned out to be
One big disappointment for me

One day I played the lottery, I thought it might be fun
Now, I'll spare the boring details, just suffice to say I won
And what a big disappointment, turned out to be
One big disappointment for me

If I'd known that all those dreams were coming true
I might have dreamed a better dream or two
Oh yeah, dream on

Oh well, I found a cure for cancer and I cured the common cold
Felt about the same as when I won the Superbowl
It was a big disappointment, turned out to be
One big disappointment for me

I dated supermodels and I won the Nobel prize
I ran nations and religions by the time I realized
It was a big disappointment, turned out to be
A big disappointment for me

Old Solomon said all his vanity
And whoever said to be or not to be
Got one big disappointment

And when I found my one true love
So precious and divine
Lived happy ever after all twenty-seven times
And what a big disappointment, turned out to be
A big disappointment for me

Have pity on a working man
Unschooled and unrefined
So unsophisticated that he's happy all the time
And what a big disappointment that has to be
One big disappointment
An extremely big, real big, very big disappointment
