Intro:

Oh put it on, take it off real quick
on the bottom of the pile, Iâm feelin sick.
It never cross my mind, That my baby lied, no-
To keep me in the beggarâs guild.
So I sleep all day and I dream all night
with the bottle in my hand I take the devilâs side.
I smile real big just to keep it hid
oh, the truth about my lack of will.
Oh I run like hell from the cityâs glow
I lose my name, I pass and forget the folks I used to know.
If I go far away from the city gates
and the long reach of the government.
Oh all alone in a cold north scene,
in the blue sky above a plane flew over me.
The banner it pulled said âyou were a fool,â
âdid you really think youâd ever win?â
Iâm taking off my dirty skin.
There is nothing to refute my sin.
I fear no one
I fear no one but you.
(Donât care⦠no no )
I lie only to tell the truth.
(No)
Em (x2)
Well the steep demands of the higher call
Oh you pawn off the world so the cars wonât stall.
I ll burn my clothes and I ll gut my soul
and pretend that I was never born (ayyyyah yeah).
Oh my oh my, look what you have done
Split your head out on the floor like youâre the chosen one.
I gave her my heart but she wanted no part
so I sold it to an antique store.
So I dug a hole four thousand miles down
To the center of the Earth where I will not be found.
Memories of the moon singing see you soon,
Though I was always partial to the sun.
I was picked up by two men of the law
They said weâre taking you downtown, forget about your call.
Hellâs no place for a wandering face
Go take it up with Beelzebub.
You laugh as you pull out the rug
I was never really much in love.
I fear no one
I fear no one but you.
(Donât care⦠no no )
I lie only to tell the truth.
(No...)
