So here we are again to experience the bitter, scalding end
And we're the only ones who can perceive it
But others sing of beauty and the story that's unfolded
As one that deserves praise and ritual
My pessimistic lines
Your superstitious lives
And the modern age's lies won't absolve you
And the professorial truth
And the dear clairvoyant youth
And of course the nightly news will deceive you
(Watch out!)

not "watch out" :) but yeah, i've noticed he uses that "watch out" line in many songs, hehe... cute ^_^
btw. i once said something like "from the realistic point of view which is mostly pessimistic..." blah blah
it's funny, cuz i didn't have this song in mind when i was saying that, only my experience LOL
great song, btw. :)
