I'm not surprised it's come to this
Sooner or later there must be another's kiss
Behind that kiss a promise of a life of bliss
Yeah, great, I won't be takin' the baitI'd rather drown
And I will not turn my whole life upside downImagine everything you've done
Under a microscope on view for everyone
And if the king of circumspection's here
He's come in vain, I won't be sharing the blameI wear the crown
And I will not turn my whole life upside downNothing's good enough for me
To shake me from complacency
I'll make my mind up and I'll never beThe kind of man who'd make a choice
For if I hold my tongue I'll never lose my voice
If each attempted act of sabotage destroys all hope
I won't be needing a ropeI'm gagged and bound
And I will not turn my whole life upside downAnd if the genie were set free
And by the laws of things like that, he's indebted to me
I'd bury my three wishes deep down in the ground
So I will not turn my whole life upside downThough I appreciate the aim
Tell Andy Warhol's ghost that he can keep his fame
I'd only use it to make everything the same again
So don't applaud till the endI'm not around
'Cause I will not turn my whole life upside downNothing's good enough for me
To shake me from complacency
I've made my mind up, I won't make a soundAnd I will not turn my whole life upside down
And I will not turn my whole life upside down
And I will not turn my whole life upside down
