I Wanted to Be Wrong (iTunes Originals Version)

You know where I come from, you know what I feel

You're Yul Brenner Westworld, reporting from the field

I threw it into reverse, made a motion to repeal

You kicked my legs from under me and tried to take the wheelI told you

I wanted to be wrong

But everyone is humming a song

That I don't understandNow I know that the sun has shined on my side of the street

The basket of America, the weevils with the wheat

The milk and honeyed congregation, scrubbed and apple cheeked

Salute Apollo Thirteen from the rattle jewelry seatsMythology's seductive and it turned a trick on me

That I have just begun to understandI told you

I wanted to be wrong

But everyone is humming a song

That I don't understandThe rodeo is staged, gold circle, goat ropers and clowns

A rumble in the third act, tie 'em up and burn 'em down

We're armed to the teeth, born a little breech

Blue plate special analysts, cells and S.U.V.'sWe can't approach the allies 'cause they seem a little peeved

And speak a language we don't understandI told you

I wanted to be wrong

But everyone is humming a song

That I don't understandStorm into the boardroom of the conquering elite

Did you recognize the madman who is shouting in the streets?

Destroy the things that I don't understand

Destroy the things that I don't understand
