bottom line

Did you think you could get very far
With your complicated answers
Begging for wishes in my tip jar
Going straight to the bottom line

There's no payout, no return on this
Investment that you've been banking
Oh, you're going to be pissed
Reading the official statement

Oh we hope for the upside that's surely coming
We pray for the bears to return
In a life bankrupted from our running
Every gift we had into the ground

Get out of the pit there young fella
Girl, let go of the pearls and the swine
Run back into the arms that'll tell ya
They were never that far away

There's no better place than the bottom
For seeing the way to the top
And inheritances? Hey you've got them
You've just got to wake up to be

There's no measuring the performance
No bar to pass or qualify
Love has come to all us vagrants
With total disregard for our deeds

And the bottom line is I can do nothing
Ya know It's all been done once before
And the return on this pure loving
Is to be one, and to be once more

Be once more, be one
