When I think about tomorrow
I only see one thing
A day laden with the sorrow
And the trouble it will bring
My heart is full of fear
My mind is full of dread
My hands are full of jelly
My feet are full of lead
The day coming after this one
Is one I’d gladly do without
But it’s ridiculous to run
And it’s of no use to shout
On the head of this stickpin
No promised angels dance
Much to my chagrin
Just the devil’s half-a-chance
He said tomorrow’s fruit is rotten
To enjoy it is to fake it
It’s the only offer that I’ve gotten
So, I guess I’ll have to take it
