Tell me it's easy And the sailing is smooth Look how far we've traveled And how little we've moved Tell me it's worth it All this crossing of lines "There's a rainbow at the end And we'll get there in time" Tell me that good lie And we'll see this through There's time still left for spending But you know that we're damned if we do Tell me we'll fix this Though the damage is done Who says the war is over When the battle is won? Pretend you've got answers And I'll try not to ask There's a rainbow at the end And I'm up for the task Oh, good lies We'll see this through There's no time now for spending And you know we'll be damned if we do Tell me that good lie And we'll see this through The job's not mine for taking But I'll be damned if I leave it to you
