And I don't mind being their whipping boy
But I know I'm a real good dancer
Don't confuse the problem with the issue, girl,
Don't need to look over my shoulder to see what I'm after
Everybody's got their problems ain't no new news here
Feel your breath in my ear
I'm the same old trouble you've been having for years
I've had that pleasure for years and years
Just a human desire to have you come near
No good deed goes unpunished
No, no I never was a sinner tell me what else can I do
Read the news around my face
Saw my picture in the paper
Second best is what you get till you learn to bend this rules
Some people ain't no damn good
Some people say I'm obnoxious and lazy
That I'm uneducated and my opinion means nothin'
Time respects no person what you lift up must fall
Want to put my arms around you
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' down
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin' down
You can bend me, you can break me
You can't trust 'em, you can't love em
'Cause it's perfectly clear
