lyrics

So we’ll be hypocrites too, I guess we can’t afford not to. There’s a compromise in policy when you compete for agency and we’ve lost worse to darker deeds. Seen smaller shots succeed. I bet that Man feels pretty Damned tho. Empire! Let the queues run round the block. Lines of desperate men. Getchoo one who can do both, an apology that don’t. Lines of desperate men. So many kids in bands have got it wrong, and those kids ain’t kids. After days of dark debate I asked a friend on higher rate, would you take the stage or stage some loud withdrawal. She said, “if it weren’t for tainted shows, I swear we’d get no shows at all”. Empire! So easily replaced. Lines of desperate men. Cold comfort when the call comes; you can shame him, you can sell yr side till he can’t hide where the blame lies, but he won’t call them lies. Eulogise on misplaced trust, imply you both messed up, is seven paragraphs enough? Someone get this man a thesaurus! Fuck it. Only contrite once they’re caught. Lines of desperate men. And not even the president believes you. Not even the president believes you. “Yah and I won’t judge him till the courts do” Not. Even. The. President. Believes you. So we’re all hypocrites, too little too late to admit that we were wrong. I bet that Man feels pretty Damned tho.
