The Ascent of Stan Lyrics

Artist: Ben Folds Five
Album: Rocking The Suburbs

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 away from

The ascent of Stan
Textbook hippy 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 wondered why your father was so resigned
Now you don't wonder any more

The ascent of Stan
Textbook hippy man
Textbook hippy man
Get rest while you can

once you wanted revolution
now you're the institution
How's it feel to be the man
It's no fun to be the man

And now, watch it all go down

The ascent of Stan
Textbook hippy man
Textbook hippy man
Get rest while you can

once you wanted revolution
now you're the institution
How's it feel to be the man
It's no fun to be the man
