[Verse 1]
Hung up down on Something to Do Street
First dollar bill that they always frame
Watching media coverage of media coverage
Of some kid who can’t make peace with fame
[Verse 2]
I hope to serve my company under General Malaise
He said he ain't making peace until it pays him a raise
He say killing is paying like I don’t know how
If peace paid money we’d have made it by now
[Chorus]
Sometimes we leave the same people
We fell for
(We’d have it New and Improved)
Must’ve believed the people they've become
(If it paid money)
I thought maybe I’d found your weakness, but maybe I just got it myself
May not have been what you wanted
But it sure is something else
But it sure is something else
[Verse 3]
I took a better job pouring fluoride in the water
Fooled the son of the widow's only daughter
I’d say, "How do you know?" She'd say, "You know how you just know something in your gut you’ve just got to trust"?
[Chorus]
Sometimes we leave the same people
We fell for
(Well its nothing like that)
Must’ve believed the people they’ve become
(It’s because we say so)
I thought maybe I’d found your weakness, but maybe I just got it myself
Might not have been what you wanted
But it sure is something else
But it sure is something else
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Setting up London bank association LIBOR rate
Framed for calling out the United States
All time, prison time, one-time economy
Now it all seems so far off the wall to me
[Chorus]
Sometimes we leave the same people
We fell for
(Watching every dollar)
Must’ve believed the people they’ve become
(Make change but me)
I thought maybe I’d found your weakness, maybe I just got it myself
Might not have been what you wanted
But it sure is something else
But it sure is something else
Sometimes we leave the same people
We fell for
(Only everything I live for)
Must’ve believed the people they’ve become
(If you’ll show me something else)
I thought maybe I’d found your weakness, maybe I just got it myself
Might not have been what you wanted
But it sure is something else
But it sure is something else
But it sure is something else
But it sure is something else...give me something else!
[Guitar Outro]
[Spoken Dialog]
"Look at that rain, man!"
"It's the Apocalypse out there."
"No, that's called 'rain'."
