Well I been lost in the backbeat
It seems like everything's wrong
Well I been strapped in the backseat
No matter how sad the song
It seems like everything I do is wrong
It's just as stupid just to sing this song
And people tell me just to leave it alone
Well I been down but not alone
Cons and tricks that get me through, aahhh
I'm full of cheats, I'll cheat you too, aahhh
Manipulation gets me through, aahhh
The point being that you never knew
That you never knew
That you never knew
No matter how bad the habit
I'll have you push it along
We seem to be these great maggots
A facist plastic song
It seems like everything I get is gone
It's just as tragic just to sing this song
My mother tells me not to do no wrong
And little kids they sing along
Cons and tricks that get me through, aahhh
I'm full of cheats, I'll cheat you too, aahhh
Manipulation gets me through, aahhh
The point being that you never knew
That you never knew
That you never knew
You know that everything you ever told me has been wrong
It seems like everyone's opinions just can't be wrong
It's a matter of words don't get me wrong
You know that everything you ever told me has been wrong
(Interpretations of backyards
They seem to push me along
Interpretations of lost arts
They seem to dictate the song)
I try to rub out the habit
It seems to push me along
No matter how bad you had it
Someone else rolls along
It seems like everything I get is gone
As highway rollers seem to roll along
The song is over now please move on
Well I been down but not for long
Cons and tricks that get me through, aahhh
I'm full of cheats, I'll cheat you too, aahhh
Manipulation gets me through, aahhh
The point being that you never knew
That you never knew
That you never knew
