True Stories Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Born under punches, crosseyed and painless
Slippery people, I'm not in love
Houses in motion, a road to nowhere
Once in a lifetime, I'm not in love
[Chorus]
Don't worry about the government
The democratic circus
'Cause mommy, daddy, you and I
Are burning down the house
[Post-Chorus]
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
[Verse 2]
Psycho killer, radio head
Television Man, I'm not in love
Puzzlin' evidence, seen and not seen
This must be the place
I'm not in love
[Chorus]
Don't worry about the government
The democratic circus
'Cause mommy, daddy, you and I
Are burning down the house
I get wild, wild gravity
Wild, wild life, the big country
[Post-Chorus]
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
[Chorus]
Don't worry about the government
The democratic circus
'Cause mommy, daddy, you and I
Are burning down the house
I get wild, wild gravity
Wild, wild life, the big country
I get wild, wild gravity
Wild, wild life, the big country
[Post-Chorus]
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
