Who's Using Who Lyrics

My poverty precedes me.
My honesty deceives me.
I think I need my things to get along.
I think I need my little things to get along.

My possessions define.
At times, they try to defy me.
They think they're right. I think they're wrong.
They think they're right. I think they're wrong.

(Chorus)
I'm overwhelmed I'm so confused.
I cannot tell who's using who.
Somewhere out there, someone knows why. I may be wrong, but I think I'm right.

Sometimes my shirt is torn,
Whether or not it should be worn.
My trousers carry the stubborn gene.
How can pants be so darned mean?

I left my shoes out on the lawn.
And now my socks show their alarm.
When will I go out and bring their brethren home?
If I go barefoot, can they manage on their own?
