																Lyrics
								
									Life's a giant empty cup
I wish that I could fill it up
But there is a hole in the bottom.
I pour in all my hopes and dreams
They sound a lot like anguished screams
And there is a hole in the bottom.
They dribble out into the ground
I suspect they drip on down
cuz there is a hole in the bottom.
My soul is but a gaping chasm
A hollow cheap and dry orgasm
There is a hole in the bottom.
I've got the jokes, I'll make you laugh
But underneath my soul is cracked
There is a hole in the bottom.
Why does the misery stick to the sides
But a happy moment wiggles and slides
Out through the hole in the bottom.
They dribble out into the ground
And I suspect they drip on down
cuz there is a hole in the bottom.
My soul is but a gaping chasm
A hollow cheap and dry orgasm
There is a hole in the bottom.
If I can hold out long enough
The misery might seal the cup
Then maybe joy can stay not go
And from the top joy overflow
Life's a giant empty cup
I wish that I could fill it up
But there is a hole in the bottom.
