Lynch, Stephen - Denial Lyrics






I bought my first full length mirror
Set it up and stood there naked looking at myself
And now I want to blow my brains out
The man I was has been replaced
Now out of shape
A growing waistline
Big love handles
Lady hips
Man what is that about

I was wrong for all these years
Trusting my house's other mirrors
Now the truth is clear as day
Got to throw that full length one away
I'm in denial, denial yeah I'm in denial, denial

Driving down the street I passed the hourly hotel
And saw my wife inside a room with some guy
She was getting paid
Straight into the room I flew
And said 'I can't believe that you have taken on a second job here as a hotel maid'
What a selfless act of love
You're my angel from above
She said 'yeah sure and this is John'
As she pulled her underwear back on

I'm in denial, denial yeah I'm in denial, denial
Man, just shut up and smile, and smile, cause it's safer in denial

2016 was Orlando and Harambe and Aleppo
And Muhammad Ali, Prince and Shandling dead at 66
England's shocking vote for Brexit
Bowie made his final exit
Man I thought this year so far has sucked a bunch of dicks

Surely the rest will turn out great
Cut to Tuesday November 8
I laughed, his odds are none to slim
Who'd be shit enough to vote for him

I was in denial, denial
Now we're all in denial, denial
Man this fucking world is vile, it's vile
But it's safer in denial, it's safer in denial

    "WHACKY SURPRISE ENDING" Lmao!

  5. B.... C....

    Does anyone know the song he's covering? Or is it just style

    B.... C....

    just style

    B.... C....

    It's a parody of something Neil Young would do or some other folk stuff. The humor is in the juxtaposition of the material with the song type, not just the situational humor of a guy forgetting his safeword during his first experience requiring it. How many of the cop procedural based TV shows have the "killed during dominatrix on accident" theme, right?

    B.... C....

    @CNN Blackmail Support wow..

    B.... C....

    @Jesper Johannesen Yeah, I went a tad overboard, but it seems like the dude needs to understand the basics of musical comedy.

    B.... C....

    @CNN Blackmail Support good thing explaining comedy has always made things funnier...

  14. R.... N....

    He had to adjust on the fly when the harmonica got partially dislodged. You could see them about to go for it before remembering that it was out of place. Nice work thinking on his feet there.

  15. w.... ....

  16. T.... ....

    The faster tempo live version of that is honestly a bad ass song. It's a shame he hates it so much, I'll sing the hook of that over and over even today.

  22. C.... Z....
