Convict
I'm a convict in a madhouse blues
Trying to live by the silver rule
Don't understand a word about
Pension plans or saving accounts
It's weekends and the nightlife tunes
Dying lust in the smoking rooms
They take whatever they make
Heart fails or Jesus saves
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all I ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All I ever wanted too
Flick through for a better view
Screens get bigger for smaller news
I'd like to love, but it's a teenage dream
And all the Biebers turn into junkies at nineteen
Suits, ties and lies for good
Black-eyed wives drinking Jack at noon
Don't you miss your one last chance
To lose everything for the dance
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all you ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All you ever wanted too
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all we ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All we ever wanted too
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Oh, everybody's waiting for something
But who's crawlin' to the right way?
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Oh, everybody's waiting for something
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Hiding from the devil in the morning
Trying to live by the silver rule
Don't understand a word about
Pension plans or saving accounts
It's weekends and the nightlife tunes
Dying lust in the smoking rooms
They take whatever they make
Heart fails or Jesus saves
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all I ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All I ever wanted too
Flick through for a better view
Screens get bigger for smaller news
I'd like to love, but it's a teenage dream
And all the Biebers turn into junkies at nineteen
Suits, ties and lies for good
Black-eyed wives drinking Jack at noon
Don't you miss your one last chance
To lose everything for the dance
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all you ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All you ever wanted too
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all we ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All we ever wanted too
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Oh, everybody's waiting for something
But who's crawlin' to the right way?
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Oh, everybody's waiting for something
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Hiding from the devil in the morning
