If you ask me why

I lie to you

I can tell you I

don't know myself

Its amazingly dishonest

But I'd have to

recognize it

As part of myself

Verse 2

Straighten up

Why can't you

straighten up

I've heard you

tell me this

So many times

It doesn't even stick

I get it all the time

I get it all the time

You know I love to

make A joke of it

Verse 3

And if you ask

me why I hurt you

I don't understand it

I can't help myself

Its a special combination

Of predatory instinct

And simple ill will

I would give some

thought to it

If I thought that

it might do me

Some good

Some good

Why can't you

Control of it

And thirty is

not too old

If I thought

that it

might do me

Some good

Some good
