Jim Johnston Dare!! Lyrics:
Words and Music: Jim Johnston

I just want to shout, It's just a waste of time,
It's "impolitical", 'round here to speak
your mind. I'm tired of self appointed
sages,searching for clouds on the horizon, but
they cannot see the stars. Sucking down on silver
spoons, they love to say how tough things are!

It's time, we dared to question this philosophy
It's funny, I don't understand, Why there's no one
smiling but me.

I just want to try, to get some joy from life,
it's irresponsible you cry wolf every night. I've
seen far too many falling faces drawn to cynicism,
like moths are drawn into a flame, who's gonna be
the next contestant in this self-affliction game!

It's time, we dared to question this philosophy

It's funny, now I understand Why there's no one
laughing but me.

Every day is a great unknown, but we have been
here before. We'll slip away, while you're
deciding what happiness means to me.

So don't ask me to share this weeks catastrophe.
If the party's really over, why is no one leaving
but me?

Stewing in this altered state, you're killing time
they're contemplating suicide. Is it possible,
they love you more than life? We'll keep searching
for that endless summer. Trade in the blues harp
for a chance to belly up right to the bar. Once in
a while I'd like to look around and see how good
things are!

It's time, we dared to question this society
Everyone was laughing at me, now there's no one
laughing, but me. It's time, We shared this
simpletons Philosophy Has everybody missed the
punchline but me? -(cause there's no one smiling
with me)
