Verse 1

It doesn't matter what I say 
So long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel that I'll convey 
Some inner truth of vast reflection
But I've said nothing so far

To hide or slide I'll do as I decide and let it

Of catchy little tunes, of hip three minute ditties
I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all of youre cities
To the ground I've found I will not mess around
Unless I play then hey I will go on all day hear what I
say I have a prayer to pray that's really all this was
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because the

Hook brings you back 
I ain't tellin' you no lie 
The hook   
On that you can rely
