Beady Belle - Irony lyrics

What is good when the sun is shining

Is that it won't remain

Every cloud has a silver lining

But I prefer the rain

Leaving loopholes is a state of mind

To never give one's all

Everywinter has a spring behind

But I prefer the fall

When God closes a door he opens a window

When joy embraces your heart it cultivates sorrow

This is the beauty of irony

What makes the foxglove wonderful

Is the virulent sap

Every lamb is dyed-in-the-wool

But I prefer the crap

What is boring in Easy Street Town

The lack of obstacles in the way

Every stair leads you up or down

But I prefer to stay
