Get Your Hands Dirty
Right and wrong, cruel and kind
Who's to say? (There's a code that I believe in)
Every choice, you're gonna find
There's shades of grey (there are rules for a reason)
Robin Hood (yeah?) Awesome guy (yeah!)
You'd agree (but he stole for the poor)
So you could then cross that line, theoretically (I don't know you anymore)
The decision's always up to you
When there's only one thing left to do
Gotta get your hands dirty
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Alright, alright
Okay, but there's some universal truths
You must recognize (like?)
Valiant knights, pure and good
Guaranteed (that depends on what they're fighting for)
Creepy witches selling potions
For evil deeds (she could have kids she's providing for)
If your good-good things will come to you
That broken vase shows that's not true (that's not fair!)
But that's how it's going
You're a nice girl, but your princess is showing
Life's a complicated game it seems
Sometimes you can't afford to play it clean
Gotta get your hands dirty (I don't know)
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty (maybe so)
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right (right)
Alright, alright
But just how far do you go?
How much do you compromise?
Oh, tell me, how do you know?
Where do you draw the line?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
If my heart tells me it's right
If it's for someone I love
If it's to save a life (to save your life)
Gotta get your hands dirty
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Alright, alright
