They said you led your life
With a well mannered state of mind
They said that you dept your eyes forward
And your feet were help by no bindThey said you were good for me, but I just
Cant see that they were ever right
I guess they didn't know you
Half as well as they must've thoughtI guess your friends are just as fooled as you were
And you talk and talk but you ain't doing nothingYou said that in all the world
There were only two things you despised
The first was a coward
And the second one was a liarYou said that honesty was your policy
But that in itself is a lie
Forgot to add hypocrite to your little list
Of how to run your lifeI guess your friends are just as fooled as you were
And you talk and talk but you ain't doing nothingWell I say I lead my life
With a well mannered state of mind
I say I like to keep moving forward
And be held by no bindsWell you may call me ambitious
But I dont see how theres any other way to be
'Cause a day is a lifetime
If youll only sweep your problems awayI guess your friends are just as fooled as you were
And you talk and talk but you ain't doing nothing
