Charmless callous ways
I have been in league with cruelty
And charmless callous ways
I have been betrayed into believing
That those who never win should never play
Nothing succeeds quite like success
And to be doomed to second best
I mistook for failure
Nothing more and nothing less
But if hate is peace and love is war
There's nothing there I feel's worth fighting for
And anything that's not my way
Anyway that's not my way
Disdain to be a grown-up fool
Who plays by adolescent rules
Where to be king is to be cruel
And constancy's an unprized j**el
Now I've abandoned all those crimes
And we'll endure without church bell chimes
