Trap Door (T-Bone Burnett)

It's a funny thing about humility As soon as you know you're being humble You're no longer humble It's a funny thing about life You've got to give up your life to be alive You've got to suffer to know compassion You can't want nothing if you want satisfaction Tonight the world looks like a different place Tonight the moon is turning in its place Tonight we find ourselves alone at last Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door It's a funny thing about love The harder you try to be loved The less lovable you are It's a funny thing about pride When you're being proud You should be ashamed You find only pain if you seek after pleasure You work like a slave if you seek out the leisure Tonight the world looks like a different place Tonight the moon is shining on your face Tonight we find ourselves alone at last Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door Watch out for the trap door
