Truth? (Original Version)

Why don't you tell me what's behind the green door Why don't you tell me, 'cause I heard it all before You know the answers, got 'em under lock and key So why don't you tell me, end this misery You're a dagger in my side, stripped of all my pride I listen at you lie Gonna raise my hand, it's time to make a stand A voice across the land Demands Why don't you tell me the truth Why don't you tell me the truth Why don't you tell me, you got things to say Why don't you do it, gonna throw it all away Why don't you hear me, when I shout it out so loud How do you sleep at night with your head up in the clouds You're the devil in disguise, I'm sick of all your lies Your hints and alibi's Gonna raise my hand, it's time to take a stand A voice across the land Demands Why don't you tell me the truth So I can say I've got a question Now listen Can you tell me what the hell is happening Why the sky is falling And the heart is calling And the youth is stalling And it's over and over again Come on, come on, come on You gotta tell me the truth You don't listen, do ya The left hand gives And the right hand takes away That's the law of the jungle But you have to learn to play Why don't you tell me the truth You better tell me the truth Come on, why don't you tell me the truth You gotta tell me the truth You try with all your might You never get it right Can't see the morning light Was never in your sight Just like the truth
