I know this comes as no surprise But the world's been pulled over our eyes for years, my dear And all the while we sit with our legs crossed As some poor bastard finds he's lost ten years
That's just another day, I live inside my head I'm tired of all the ways and I wish I was dead It's been so many years, I've finally figured out a way To keep a good man down, down, oh keep a good man down, down
I locked you up and threw away the key To all your better days, my bad, my friend There's so many things you'll never be Many things you'll never have, so sad, oh well
That's just another day, I live inside my head I'm tired of all the ways and I wish I was dead It's been so many years, I've finally figured out a way To keep a good man down, down, oh keep a good man down, down
As you're floating through the paces of your day There's a burning need to get yourself away Everywhere temptation starts to breed The things you know, you'll never need Satisfy that greed, satisfy that greed
I know this comes as no surprise But the world's been pulled over our eyes for years, my dear
That's just another day, I live inside my head I'm tired of all the ways and I wish I was dead It's been so many years, I've finally figured out a way To keep a good man down, down, yeah keep a good man down, down Oh, keep a good man down, down, yeah, keep a good man down, down
