Three whole days, and I can't remember
The reason for this rendezvous
It could be the teeth on the floor
It could be the three-inch nail in my brain
Why don't you pick on
Someone your own size?
Your reflection
Open to no compromise
There's something terrible, something noble
About your overt dedication
You want no sympathy
Just to rid all the world of beggars and informants
Why don't you pick on
Someone your own size?
Your reflection
Open to...
No compromise
No compromise
No remorse
No reprise
Why don't you pick on
Someone your own size?
Your reflection
Open to no compromise

You've been gone so long
Forgot about the whole thing
Took no time at all
(To vanish into the crowd)
We got you wrong
(But we'll figure it out)
So long
(We're better off now)
You were so wrong to break your vow
Dear Mr. Winner
Would've bought you dinner
If it wasn't for the soldiers' dynamite on the tracks
Will you be back?
We'll become friends
We'll make amends in the end
Tobacco farmers bring in a lot of cash
You've been gone so long
Forgot about the whole thing
It took no time at all
(To vanish into the crowd)
We got you wrong
(We'll figure it out)
So long
(We're better off now)
You were so wrong to break your vow
You were the man
You were the chosen one
At least, that was the plan
Until somebody pulled a gun
Months later, you'll find me upstate
If you can withstand the food
i caught the flu, and it's your fault
I wrote you a letter, but you never called back
(So vanish into the crowd)
We got you wrong
(We'll figure it out)
So long
(We're better off now)
You were so wrong to break your vow

I stood on my head
I caught every baseball
You'd start to see red too
If they made you do the things I do
One prod is all it takes
What have I done?
Oh, for goodness sakes!
Can't wait to get to the gallows
Last time to stomp around
Won't even have me in a nearby town
Could they be any more shallow?
I hate the parade
I hate the theatrics
I'd rather go down with you under my foot
Squish your skull like a watermelon would
One prod is all it takes
What have I done?
Oh, for goodness sakes!
Can't wait to get to the gallows
Last time to stomp around
Won't even have me in a nearby town
Could they be any more shallow?
Am I callow?
Am I callow?
Am I naïve?
One prod is all it takes
What have I done?
Oh, for goodness sakes!
Can't wait to get to the gallows
Last time to stomp around
Won't even have me in a nearby town
Could they be any more shallow?
Am I callow?
Am I naïve?
