swindled by a swindler who lies
'cause he wants to see you smile,
have a good time, be inspired
And he doesn't want for you
to cry or know he cries inside
So he hides behind his great
triumphant rock and roll disguise
We want things to be real but
We feel excited and on fire is it
wrong to lie and say he's fine
When the reason he's not fine is the
pressure of the power changing lives
And just for an hour all these people will be better
take this job and shove it, adios I'm a ghost
I am leaving for the coast and I'll
never work for anyone again
I am not your savior or your
I'm just a piece of zwieback toast
Getting soggy in a baby's achin' mouth
I'm going south like the geese
I just goosed you and so maybe
But I don't even want to screw
Now that I see how you do things
The way you play and sing's amazing
But the way you play the game is crazy
You don't have to say you're sorry
you don't owe me anything
But the answers aren't the same when
the questions keep on changing
Like how will I react when I
And how will I contain my anger
When Delila plays Unchained Melody
instead of Lost In Your Eyes?
And where will I go where
When my family sells its place and
we all split up and move away?
