The Ascent Of Stan

Pangs of silence
From the room upstairs
How's the view there?
Do you read what they're saying about you?
That you're no fun
Since the war was won
In fact, you have become
All of the things you've always run from

The ascent of Stan
Textbook hippie man

Get rest while you can

So where'd the years go?
All the time we had
Being poor was
Not such a drag in hindsight
And you wonder
Why your father was so resigned?
Now you don't wonder anymore

The ascent of Stan
Textbook hippie man

Textbook hippie man
Get rest while you can

(Stan) Once you wanted revolution
(Stan) Now you're the institution
(Stan)
How's it feel to be the man? (feels to be the man)
It's no fun to be the man

La-da-da
La-da-da-da
La-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-aaaaa-da-da-daaa
And now, watch it all go down

Now you're the institution

How's it feel to be the man? (feels to be the man)
