when you come to the end of the rainbow and there`s no pot of gold when you wait all night in a downtown bar for a guy who never shows when you lost all your money chasing a star and you can`t turn back cos you`ve gone too far it`s a joke reaching for the sky cos you think you`re gonna fly it`s a joke knew he was a lie but still you`re gonna try it`s a joke think you`d get wise and realise life on earth can be so unkind gonna get in my spaceship leave it all behind when they tell you it`s gonna get better but nothing ever changed when you open your eyes in the morning but it all looks the same when you spend your life in a crazy dream where nothing`s ever what it seems it`s a joke think you`re so clever and you`re gonna find the treasure it`s a joke gonna be together and it`s gonna last forever it`s a joke pray to number seven and you`re sure to go to heaven life on earth can be so unkind gonna get in my spaceship leave it all behind
