My muffins are in the toaster
   I got my raspberry jam
   My grandfather was a sailor
   that came onto this land
   and he was looking for gold,
   a pretty hand to hold,
   or some cards to fold.
   At least, that's what I was told.

   Silver Lining, where'd you go?
   
   Turn on my TV
   They got talking heads in space
   used to be so easy
   to have a little faith
   I used to rely on luck
   I didn't feel so stuck
   Could earn an honest buck
   without lookin round, like Jon Kruk.

   Silver Lining, where'd you go?
   
   I used to have hope
   Now we got soap on a rope
   I used to have dreams
   Now we got overplayed baseball teams
   We got grocery baggers, grafitti taggers,
   golf-ball shaggers, go team go.

   Silver Lining, where'd you go?
   
   My landlord knocks upon my door
   He's got that payday face
   I swear to God he should be payin me
   To live inside this place
   It's filled with sharks and fins
   whose double chins say
   Thicken your skin, child
   if you want to win
   
   Silver Lining
   Silver Lining, where'd you go?
   
   I fix myself some herbal tea
   cause it's healthier they say
   well, healthier ain't half as fun
   I take a cold beer anyday
   I used to have dysfunctional fun
   in the cancerous sun
   with my co-dependent hon
   eatin greasy greasy hotdogs on a buttered up bun
   
   Silver Lining
   Silver Lining, where'd you go?
   Silver Lining
   Silver Lining, where'd you go?
