Candide Lyrics

Stop the wrecking ball

Are you getting off?

This course in melodrama

Wake me when it's over

Thin skin we're whipped again

They're merciless

Flag wavers prey and prosper

Escape with me father

Come on, come on

You and I have been around

Beaten up, run out of town

Don't say

"God's planned the world we live in,

Take what you can get," it's written

Earth shakes and waters rise

A plague hits, my lover dies

And you say

"Best of all possible worlds

Get by while it all unfurls"

Syphilis, aren't you sick of this

Give me a hand

To the taking back of our fate

Believe in another

There's a little patch of land there

Just up ahead

Slow and steady we can prosper

Trot on with me father

Come on, come on

You and I have been around

Beaten up, run out of town

Don't say

"God's planned the world we live in,

Take what you can get," it's written

Earth shakes and waters rise

A plague hits, my lover dies

And you say

"Best of all possible worlds

Get by while it all unfurls"

This land needs tiling

Come on and help out

The pirate swine

We'll bluff and cop out

Your... worlds just burn out

You and I have been around

Beaten up, run out of town

Don't say

"God's planned the world we live in,

Take what you can get," it's written

Tragic comic repartee

This schlep has had it's day

I say

Get by or you're a goner

Hands on and we'll get stronger

Get by or you're a goner

Hands on and we'll get stronger

Oh...

The water has spat us out

Coast is clear again

Hush up now

And don't get bored

Work away

We're on the mend
