Cynics they survive

She’s innocent, she’s naïve

Believes in fairy tales.

She was born an optimist

Believes she cannot fail.

 Poor, poor little rich girl.

Out to save the world.

Cynics they survive.

Cynics, cynics they survive.

Cynics they survive.

With tenderness and love.

Trusts in a higher power.

Don’t know it’s not enough.

Out to save the world.

Martyrs die for foolishness.

Cynics they survive.

Cynics, cynics they survive.

Cynics they survive.

Verse

There’s wickedness, there’s evil.

There’s avarice and lies.

There’s hate and there’s pestilence.

Ain’t nothing gold can’t buy.

 Poor, poor little rich girl.

Out to save the world.

Chorus

Martyrs die for foolishness.

Cynics they survive.

Cynics, cynics they survive.

Cynics they survive.
