I got a fever I can't shake I got a sickness I ain't gonna quit I'm on a streak that I can't break Lighting the wick of each relationship I got a secret to tell you It's never as hard as you're making it seem I got a secret to tell you You are the doomed 'cause you want to be I'm as ticked off as a time bomb All I can seem to blow out is my knee Half a man does a half a** job I'd blow my top for some disability I got a secret to tell you You won't be content 'til you're six feet under I got a secret to tell you This life is yours to plunder Oh, yeah! It's simple enough to be happy But who's gonna choose to ignore Such basic truths - not you I can't remember my childhood All I recall is a flickering screen My life is likely a forgery Cobbled together by books and TV I got a secret to tell you You're not the proxy you pretend to be Yeah, I got a secret to tell you You can play dumb if it suits your needs I'm bustin' out of this coffin I'm gonna roll my old bones in the dirt Cuttin' a rug with my skeletons Hastily hidden, they never stay put Boy, I got a secret to tell you Nobody's ransacking your dresser drawers I got a secret to tell you You're not even sure what they're hiding for Oh, yeah! Nobody wants to be lonely But you're willing to make an exception Just for you - Lonely you
