Song lyrics:

EVER SINCE
I WAS A KID IN SCHOOL
I MESSED AROUND
WITH ALL THE RULES
APOLOGISED, THEN REALISED
I'M NOT DIFFERENT AFTER ALL

ME AND THE BOYS
THOUGHT WE HAD IT SUSSED
VALENTINOS ALL OF US

MY DAD SAID
WE LOOKED RIDICULOUS
BUT, BOY
WE BROKE SOME HEARTS

IN AND OUT OF JOBS
RUNNING FREE
WAGING WAR WITH SOCIETY
DUMB, BLANK FACES
STARED BACK AT ME
BUT NOTHING EVER CHANGED

PROMISES MADE
IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT
CREEPIN' HOME
BEFORE IT GOT TOO LIGHT

I WASTED ALL THAT
PRECIOUS TIME
AND BLAMED IT ON THE WINE

I WAS ONLY JOKING, MY DEAR
LOOKING FOR A WAY
TO HIDE MY FEAR
WHAT KIND OF FOOL WAS I...
I COULD NEVER WIN

NEVER FOUND A COMPROMISE
COLLECTED LOVERS
LIKE BUTTERFLIES
ILLUSIONS OF THAT
GRAND FIRST PRIZE
ARE SLOWLY WEARIN' THIN

SUSIE, BABY
YOU WERE GOOD TO ME
GIVING LOVE UNSELFISHLY
BUT YOU TOOK IT
ALL TOO SERIOUSLY
I GUESS IT HAD TO END

I WAS ONLY JOKING, MY DEAR
LOOKING FOR A WAY
TO HIDE MY FEAR
WHAT KIND OF FOOL WAS I...
I COULD NEVER WIN

YEAH, BABY
WOO!

OH...

NOW YOU ASK ME IF I'M SINCERE
THAT'S THE QUESTION
THAT I ALWAYS FEAR
VERSE SEVEN IS NEVER CLEAR
BUT I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT YOU WANNA HEAR

I TRY TO GIVE YOU ALL YOU WANT
BUT GIVING LOVE
IS NOT MY STRONGEST POINT
IF THAT'S THE CASE
IT'S POINTLESS GOING ON
I'D RATHER BE ALONE

'CAUSE WHAT I'M DOING
MUST BE WRONG
POURING MY HEART OUT
IN A SONG

OWNING UP FOR PROSPERITY
FOR THE WHOLE
DAMN WORLD TO SEE

QUIETLY NOW
WHILE I... TURN A PAGE
ACT ONE IS OVER
WITHOUT COSTUME CHANGE

THE PRINCIPAL
WOULD LIKE TO LEAVE THE STAGE
THE CROWD DON'T UNDERSTAND
