(verse one):    I fell off a cliff   Now I'm down in the deep   This place is a dive--   Four days I've nothing to eat   I'm a commercial and I say   Don't take a trip to the sun   A public service message says   "Work has got to be done."      CHORUS: But I'm no better than you   And you're no better than me   So we'll see it all the way through   and pretend there's no misery.      (verse two):   Don't fade away too fast   Don't get lost in the past   It's supernatural--a pool of death   Don't want to jump in--let me   Catch my breath!      CHORUS: But I'm no better than you   And you're no better than me   So we'll see it all the way through   and pretend there's no misery!      (verse three:)   I'm lost and alone   I'm losing my head   I wish I had a gun   How long must I pretend   That I'm just a fool who says,   Have some fun!   A public service message says,   "Work has got to be done!"      CHORUS: But I know better than you   And you know better than me   So we'll see it all the way through   and pretend there's no misery!      Well, I've got to pretend   There's no misery   Well, I've got to pretend   There's no misery   Pretend--!!!   I've got to, I've got to   pretend there's no misery--   Well, I've got pretend there's no misery (repeat ten times and fade)      (c) 1979 bill vaun - Vaun New-Tunes Music (BMI)
