You are the reason we all feel depressed
Why can’t you shut up for a while
And it’s time that you stopped putting us to the test
Like bursting to tears when we smile
You are a channel for all that is bad
Now don’t turn that power on me
Take your wild imputations back to your own head
Or learn to set your demons free
I am a kind soul I am a saint
I tell you lies like a lick of paint
To cheer you up
And if you tell me that ain’t quite right
I will agree, won’t put up a fight
Butter up
Say you’re bright
But I won’t stop
I won’t stop being myself
You just had to crash down now
Now there’s so much at stake
Did you think about us at all?
You say yes, I say no
You say help, I say go
I will see you when I’m ready
I am a kind soul I am a saint
I tell you lies like a lick of paint
To cheer you up
And if you tell me that ain’t quite right
I will agree, won’t put up a fight
Butter up
Say you’re bright
But I won’t stop
I won’t stop being myself
I am a kind soul I am a saint
I tell you lies like a lick of paint
To cheer you up
And if you tell me that ain’t quite right
I will agree, won’t put up a fight
Butter up
Say you’re bright
Even might blow your top
But I won’t stop
I won’t stop being myself
