Honesty Is No Excuse

[Verse 1: Aimee Mann]

Up 'til now, I lived my life

Drinking beer so slowly, and sometimes wine

No god, air, water or sunshine

And honesty was my only excuse

I took your love and I used it

[Verse 2: Ted Leo]

Up 'til now, my youthful stage

A useless rage, a torn out page, a worn out gauge

A dirty shade, a big charade, a has-been made

And honesty was my only excuse

I took your love and I used it

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I never, I never

[Verse 3: Aimee Mann and Ted Leo]

Up 'til now, a path of life

Was fair enough, enough was fair

And always right

Now I know, I see the light

And honesty, oh honesty

I took your love and I abused it

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
