The day shall come
When the world acts dumb
And I'll laugh in my corner
Ignoring the foreigners
Don't say I didn't warn her
The day shall arise
When you'll know I was wise
Yeah. I was right
To stand back—not fight
I hid out of sight
That day will happen
When logic's misshapen
And reason is gone
I've already undergone
It could happen at dawn
I'll be sitting on my lawn
In my chair
You'll say it isn't fair.
And I will smile
A grin that goes on for a mile
That you've never seen before
A smile that makes you sore
To see
Your horror at my twisted glee
So you'll be shaken
That my frown's misshapen
And that day shall come
And hope will become
Something that all will need
But not me by my creed.
