Lyrics
Throw a cause at the wall If it sticks, then you run with it If you choose from the news Be alert of its timeliness You don't need a song to come out About some outdated scandal Come and gone Just cling to basic cliches Of fundamental wrongs Or make it up as you go along If it works to be hurt You could be a piece of shit Leave your house and your spouse Like a great escape artist You don't need your family to read The agony you've inflicted On yourself The more you push 'em away The more you'll sell Ain't that the reason you write Your hangdog and forthright songs? You make it up as you go along Now you're out on your own All alone with your hurtful words All the pain you've attained You applied to a second verse No one wants to listen to sins Regurgitated on colored wax again You played your best cards When you were young and insolent So, here we are Stumbled on a bridge Looking for a scar You haven't exploited Oh, I can't go on Make it up as you go along Endings Lend poignancy That's really all I want Make it up as you go along
