Keep the Change, You Filthy Animal
Lyrics
Are you having trouble finding sleep at night?
Or does your lack of conscience tell you
Everything's all right?
I trust your good intentions
That you're watching over friends
You must think that I'm crazy
If I don't see through that grin
So tell me what your best friend knows
That I don't know
Tell me why you talk me down
Wherever you go
You're a saint, you're a queen
And I'm just another boy without a crown
Tell me why you sell me out everywhere you go
I just wanna know what your best friend knows
So vindictive, you'll say anything you like
The smile you fake, the steps you take
You know you never could get it right
And talk is cheap
So make believe your secrets find the grave
It's too late, you gave up
Your last chance to walk away
So tell me what your best friend knows
That I don't know
Tell me why you talk me down
Wherever you go
You're a saint, you're a queen
And I'm just another boy without a crown
Tell me why you sell me out everywhere you go
I just wanna know what your best friend knows
You stand a little too tall, say a little too much
Gonna bite that know-it-all tongue
You tried a little too hard, now I'm calling that bluff
Big plans are coming undone
That's just typical, you're so cynical
Couldn't have me, I didn't want you
You're selling me out to the girl I can't afford to lose
You stand a little too tall, say a little too much
You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue
You tried a little too hard, now I'm calling that bluff
Big plans are coming undone
That's just typical, you're so cynical
Couldn't have me, I didn't want you
You set yourself up to lose
So tell me what your best friend knows
That I don't know
Tell me why you talk me down
Wherever you go
You're a saint, you're a queen
And I'm just another boy without a crown
Tell me why you sell me out everywhere you go
I just wanna know what your best friend knows
What your best friend knows
I'm never gonna let this go
What your best friend knows
