I haven't time to sympathize
With all this nonsense and your lies
You are the king of nothing
But you shall hold me

You've got your finger on the pulse
And in my pocket, yes of course
I am the voice of treason
But you betrayed me

I used up nearly all my luck
I didn't have to try
But yesterday is gone
And now I need an alibi

If this gets any stranger
Things are gonna change
'Cause I can't stand the music
Always lyin'

If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it
(On through it)

If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it

So please believe me when I say
I wouldn't give the time of day
Because then I'd be faking
When I could tell the truth

Were you abandoned in your youth?
Because if not, you will be soon
I'm growin' tired of waitin'
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net -]
For you to say goodbye

I used up nearly all my luck
I didn't have to try
But yesterday is gone
And now I need an alibi

If this gets any stranger
Things are gonna change
'Cause I can't stand the music
Always lyin'

If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it
(On through it)

If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it

I used up nearly all my luck
I didn't have to try
But yesterday is gone
And now I need an alibi

If this gets any stranger
Things are gonna change
'Cause I can't stand the music
Always lyin'

If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it
(On through it)

If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it
