They Got It Wrong (As Usual) |
They took the girl with the famous eyebrows and plucked them out |
They made her shadow disappear in the mirror |
And called it a shadow of doubt |
Then they wanted us to pay up front |
For the privilege of watching this go down |
Then they painted her eyebrows back on now she’s a clown |
They got it wrong (as usual) |
They got it wrong (as usual) |
They got it wrong |
They took the boy with the overworked vibrato |
And called him a singer of songs |
They made him lose his faith on the spotlight |
Till he started singing 'bout his gun |
They shot the wolves in the wild tundra cos man has to be top dog |
Then they hauled out an innocent victim and gave him a hearty flog |
CHORUS REPEAT |
They got it wrong and made it worthless |
Got it wrong and made it worthless |
As usual. |
As usual |
They took the real things that worked for us and threw them out |
They took the only things that really mattered |
And said this is not what it’s about |
They killed the wolves in the wild tundra cos man has to be top dog |
Then they elevated the ignorant like they were Gods |
CHORUS REPEAT |
