The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men and Henry Bemis (2010 Verison) Lyrics by HVL

Greenland

2010

[Verse 1]
He’s married to his job
But he also has a wife, and her name is Helen
And it tears him up inside
When she scribbles the page of the poem he’s reading
[Pre-Chorus 1]
She doesn’t let him read
She only tears up the pages
He works for the bank
But his boss is about to fire him
[Chorus 1]
Well it’s too bad, too bad, too bad
You know he doesn’t mind you
[Verse 2]
He waits for his break
Eats lunch in the basement
He sits in the vault
And reads about H-bombs in the paper
[Verse 3]
And climbing the steps
He exits the vault
Wipes dust from his glasses
He calls out for his wife
Calls out for some help
And wanders the wasteland
He knows he's alone
And he knows he's alive
But he wishes he wasn’t
So he picks up a gun
And he puts it to his head
But he notices a library
[Chorus 2]
And it’s too bad, too bad, too bad
And it’s not fair, not fair, not fair
[Bridge]
You know it’s not fair
You know he had time
You know it’s not fair
You know he had time
[Chorus 3]
Well it’s too bad, too bad, too bad
And it’s not fair, not fair, not fair
And it’s too bad, too bad, too bad
And I’m sorry for your misfortune
[Instrumental]
