These slick black suits and ties Will open up your eyes It's not the life you pictured In your head So sit back Take your time It's slipping on the rise If it happened once It'll happen once again And they're all ready to tell you lies And they're all ready to tell you lies So don't forget your ticket stub to ride This rollercoaster ride He who says, "Don't second guess." Is skipping all the rails And ripping out the stitches Of your life The barkers call the tolling bell To strip your body bare And whip you within inches Of your life And they're all ready to tell you lies
And they're all ready to tell you lies So don't forget your ticket stub to ride This rollercoaster ride Thread bare, bones and all Captain's never sleeping They shake you to make sure You're awake Singin' "Toss that body overboard Let's have another round." You've had plenty more than You can take And they're all ready to tell you lies And they're all ready to tell you lies So don't forget your ticket stub to ride This rollercoaster ride This rollercoaster ride This rollercoaster ride This rollercoaster ride
