Hypocrisy
I want to earn your self-respect
But the last time that I checked
My fantasy got wrecked
How can you be the way you are?
Sometimes near and sometimes far
But always with your finger on the pulse
Of what is going on going wrong
The way we were the way you are
The dreams we had that never got too far
Are like an arrow in my heart
You believe in the Allegory of the Cave
But Plato had his faves
The first platonic come-on
How can you be the way you are?
Sometimes near and sometimes far
But always with your finger on the pulse
Of what is going on going wrong
The way we were the way you are
The dreams we had that never got too far
Are like an arrow in my heart
Your whole life is pure hypocrisy
God gave you a pretty face
But you paint yourself another
So you can hide your point of view
You paint yourself another
So no one will discover
What's going on
Going wrong
The way we were the way you are
The dreams we had that never got too far
Are like an arrow in my heart
Your whole life is pure hypocrisy
Do as I say not as I do
Your whole life is pure hypocrisy
You say you care about them but you really only care about
Your whole life is a lie can't you see?
You say you care about them but you really only care about you
But the last time that I checked
My fantasy got wrecked
How can you be the way you are?
Sometimes near and sometimes far
But always with your finger on the pulse
Of what is going on going wrong
The way we were the way you are
The dreams we had that never got too far
Are like an arrow in my heart
You believe in the Allegory of the Cave
But Plato had his faves
The first platonic come-on
How can you be the way you are?
Sometimes near and sometimes far
But always with your finger on the pulse
Of what is going on going wrong
The way we were the way you are
The dreams we had that never got too far
Are like an arrow in my heart
Your whole life is pure hypocrisy
God gave you a pretty face
But you paint yourself another
So you can hide your point of view
You paint yourself another
So no one will discover
What's going on
Going wrong
The way we were the way you are
The dreams we had that never got too far
Are like an arrow in my heart
Your whole life is pure hypocrisy
Do as I say not as I do
Your whole life is pure hypocrisy
You say you care about them but you really only care about
Your whole life is a lie can't you see?
You say you care about them but you really only care about you
