I'm just bein' realistic, bein' honest with myself I've tried bein' optimistic but it doesn't seem to help So I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt I'm not bein' pessimistic, just bein' honest with myself I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it You only get that which you're given, it's not always up to you Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view Some days you have to wait until the storm just passes through I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today So like a boat on the ocean, I'll rock with the waves God, I'm so sick of this notion that I have to fake Fake my emotions and pretend I'm okay So like a boat on the ocean, I'll just rock with the waves I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
