Cynical Lyrics by Timbuk 3

A Hundred Lovers

0

I can get so cynical sometimes
See the dark side of every silver lining
But you cut through the negativity
When you do the things you do to me
Ooh, I can't get cynical
Ooh, I can't get cynical about you
If you were anyone else I might suspect
I'm just another whom in time you will reject
A home improvement project
An object for your pleasure
But something tells me
We have found a lasting treasure
Ooh, I can't get cynical
Ooh, I can't get cynical about you
I can get cynical enough to make you mad
I can get cynical about your mom and dad
I can be bad you know as well as I do
But I'm no cynic when it comes to loving you
Ooh, I can't get cynical about you
Cynical, I can't get cynical about you
I can get cynical about most anything
I can get cynical about this song I sing
It's just so positive it must be really shallow
Flowers on the window ledge, acres lying fallow
I don't believe in your theory of creation
I don't believe that Mary was a virgin
I don't believe in your brother the mystic
That's not being cynical
That's just being realistic
Ooh, I can't get cynical about you
Cynical, I can't get cynical about you
In this world of cynical souls
Actors cast in cynical roles
Thank God I know someone so nice
Who'll give me respite from my greatest vice
Ooh, I can't get cynical
Ooh, I can't get cynical about you
