Blues From A Hypochondriac (Always Hoping For The Worst)

All yesterday's weirdness

Is tomorrow's reason why

Hey I like myself best

At times when I don't try

'Cause there is something about what happens

That strikes a match inside

Yeah something that is filled up

With everything I try to hide

I'm in love with the feelings

That the machine just can't read

There's enough for everybody's need

But not enough for everybody's greed

I'm passed the days of confusion

But am I passed the days of wondering why?

And then I like myself best

At times when I don't try

And there's tears waiting in the alley

And there's laughter ?

And I'm sitting in here contemplating

Waiting for the bubble to burst

I'm always hoping for the worst

There's a new she-devil in town

She's a real home wreck wrider

A dealbreaker

A heartbreaker

Oh I shot her first

I'm always hoping for the worst

Every fear I had is a wish

And temptation my favourite dish

Damn right, I got the blues

But I see them in their hired shoes

How am I supposed to be thankful

When I'm already so faithful

You think you're waiting on a new sheet's call

Next thing you know, you're heading for a fall

And there's tears waiting in the alley

And there's laughter ?And I'm sitting here contemplating (waiting)

For the bubble to burst

I'm always hoping for the worst

See the doctor in a white suit

Chasing an uncalled patient

Complaining about hospital food

And I'm sitting on the lap

Of a long legged nurse

I'm always hoping for the worst

Well, the pain is gone now

But soon it'll be back

After I stop singing these blues

From a hypochondriac

Tears waiting in the alley

And there's laughter ?

And I'm sitting here contemplating

Waiting for the bubble to burst

I'm always hoping for the worst

Don't hurt me doctor

I wanted something that can fulfill

I feel a little ill

I want a jagged little little pill

I'm always hoping for the worst
