Got to get something done today 
Give accomplishment a shot 
Might not have a full palette to use 
But I'm gonna paint with the colors I've got 

There're your hopes and ideals you embrace 
Then there's what's staring you in the face 
Sorrowful times are here but they won't last 
'Cause this too shall pass 

Feeling like a lazy tub o' lard 
Rajneesh Jr. gave me his business card 
Think I'll take the personality test 
To document my fine mess this far 

There're your hopes and dreams you embrace 
Then there's what's staring you in the face 
First place man will one day roll in last 
'Cause this too shall pass 

Better get on out to the starting line 
They're coming soon 
They're gonna fix it in time 
I just want to get what's mine 
Not a fortune gonna just, gonna just, love life 
And this too shall pass 

Do what you got to do to find a cure 
For the things that make you feel so impure 
Just how I don't know for sure 
Sometimes misery has a strange allure 

There're your hopes and ideals you embrace 
Then there's what's staring you in the face 
Sorrowful times are here but they won't last 
'Cause this too shall pass 

There are your hopes and dreams you embrace 
Then there's what's staring you in the face 
Sorrowful times are here but they won't last 
'Cause this too shall pass
