Mine Is No Disgrace

How does it feel to take the blame?
How does it feel to be behind the train?
Because you can take what you can get and ask for more
You never get what you deserve and that’s the score
Remember that the life you save may be your own
But when you’re bankrupt, you won’t get another loan
I hope that you’ll accept my sympathy
But understand I gotta think it’s better him than me
It’s better him than me
The chain is just as strong as its weakest link
When you endure the strain, it’s always later than you think
It’s later than you think
Resigned to a life of chronic celibacy
With fond memories and cheap pornography
God forbid I ever wanted intimacy
No more, that’s out of the door
God forbid I should feel
I know that ain’t real
But now I feel like I could rape a nun
And it’s always the first kiss that gets you drunk
That gets you drunk
So I keep a habit on her face
While I listen to that Yes song, Yours Is No Disgrace
Mine is no disgrace, no, no disgrace
How does it feel to fade away?
How does it feel to be beneath the train?
A life disguised behind a backwards mask
A little dignity is all I ask
Many people cross the beach and leave no trace
Well, I’m hoping for my footprints to remain
I know that ain’t real
Mine is no
Mine is no disgrace
