Two Sides of an Argument

LyricsShow lyrics

"Schadenfreude"
by Jon Eric

There was a man who used to love you to death
But lately he's been out of touch
Nowadays, he barely sees you at all
It's hard to think he likes you much

He picked his path
The money came, the money went
And lately you've been feeling like you're trapped out here
He slept around
You know he did, and now you think, there's
nothing holding you to him but twenty-two years

[chorus:]
His fancy little dancer that you could have been yourself
The lancing little answers that he gave to someone else
The rancid fucking cancer that's been eating at his health
You call it schadenfreude

But then again... he never asked to be sick
He needs you now to stay with him
And you're aware that he won't last very long
You probably ought to stay till then

'Cause after all,
You never showed him much attention
Influential people can get lonely too
And if you stay
And keep a watchful eye on him
There's a chance he might fall back in love with you

[chorus, solo, chorus]

You're in the middle of benefitting from a conversation I had with RG about judging this thing. There's plenty about this track that irritates the crap out of me, mainly the supercheesy sounds, but I've got to admit that in terms of song craft/lyrical flow and content you've got an edge here. Personally it's the "rancid fucking cancer" line that saves it for me.
