The King & I - Down By Law

candy coated promise

and candy coated lies

I don’t know what you’ve been told

but we’ve heard it a million times

from day to day is how you’re livin'

blowing chances that you’ve been given

jaded ears, jaded spoons

feed us like we’re little fools

now we’ve got our chance

I know the way it was

and now the way it is

you don’t know what the fuck you’re saying

and we don’t give a shit

should you stay, or should you go.

..

you ask yourself — who wants to know?

This and that, get off my back

go ahead and steal the show

acting stupid, that’s all you did

now we’re rolling and moving steps ahead

jaded ears, jaded spoons

feed us like we’re little fools

enough fake romance

and now we’re gonna draw the line

we’re sick of wasting all our time

we won’t change who we really are

you’ve pushed us way too far
