Well the shadows might slow down
Your lightning fast eyes
But don't forget that one day
You’ll have your mother's thighs
And your daddy will not always make
Your bail
So I guess that just this one night
You're gonna have to spend the night in jail
Well save your Hallmark sentiments
For those you pay to care
Like the ones who do your nails or
Shake your head or cut your hair
Cause your boyfriend will not always
Forgive you
So I guess you’re gonna have to flip the gun
And decide who should shoot who
Well the incredible overexcusers of our livеs
It's remarkable the powеr to forgive lies
Well I know you've poisoned every single good idea
But I got just one more that I'd like you to hear
But will you take advice from someone
Who still loves you
When I know that you think that I'm the one
The bloody glove belongs to
Well the incredible overexcusers of our lives
It's remarkable the power to forgive lies
Well there's a part of me that's newly
On the lookout
But you’re the one who refuses
To pull the hook out
You say you know the subtle secret sanctions
Of the drug handshake
But the hand that feeds the lion
Will be the first his hungry jaws will take
Well the incredible overexcusers of our lives
It’s remarkable the power to forgive lies
Well the incredible overreceptors of bad vibes
Were the apologists for the apologists of our time
