Lyrics

I get up from a dream and I look for rain Take an amphetamine and a crushed rat's brain How am I feeling? Better, I suppose How am I looking? I don't want the truth What am I doing? I ain't in my youth I'm past my prime, or was that just a pose? It's a wonderful lie I still get by on those Oh, it's a wonderful lie I've been accused of never opening up You get too close, then I keep my mouth shut I'm gonna run to the wind where the big bad city blows It's a wonderful lie I still get by on those It's a wonderful lie I still get by on those You can dress to the hates, you can dress to maim It'll make you feel better, distortion and fame Wearing too much makeup and not near enough clothes 'Cause it's a wonderful lie I still get by on those It's a wonderful lie I still get by By on those Oh, it's a wonderful lie Oh, it's a wonderful lie So don't pin your hopes, don't pin your dreams To misanthropes and guys like me Because the truth is overrated, I suppose 'Cause it's a wonderful lie I still get by on those It's a wonderful lie I still get by Get by on those
