Everything's Ruined Songtext
von Faith No More

We were so happy

Things worked out better than we had planned
Capital from boy, woman and man

We were like ink and paper
Numbers on a calculator
Knew arithmetic so well
Working overtime
Completed what was assigned
We had to multiply ourselves

A bouncing little baby
A shiny copper penny

And he spent himself
Would not listen to us
But when he lost his appetite
He lost his weight in friends

He became a fat nickel so fast
Then came puberty
Exponentially
Soon our boy became a million


People loved him so
And helped him to grow
Everyone knew the thing that was best
Of course, he must invest

A penny won′t do, no
A penny won't do, no
A penny won′t do, no
A penny won't do, no

But he made us proud
He made us rich
And how were we to know
He's counterfeit

Now everything′s ruined, yeah
Now everything′s ruined, yeah
Now everything's ruined, yeah
Now everything′s ruined, yeah

Now everything's ruined, yeah
Now everything′s ruined, yeah
Now everything's ruined, yeah
Now everything′s ruined, yeah
