pangs of silence from the room upstairs
how's the view there?
do you read what they're saying about you
that you're no fun
since the war was won
in fact you have become
all of the things you've always run from
the ascent of stan
textbook hippy man
get rest while you can
so where'd the years go?
all the time we had
being poor was
not such a drag in hindsight
and you wondered
why your father was
so resigned
now you don't wonder anymore
the ascent of stan
textbook hippy man
get rest while you can
once you wanted revolution
now you're the institution
how's it feel to be the man
it's no fun to be the man
