You walk that tightrope inch by inch I could turn into a noose in a pinch And I'm never gonna k** myself again Against a wall, yeah I rest my head I never lie when I'm in my bed And I'm never gonna tell that joke again You wanna let Id slip in? The man who eats sh** learns to take a piss You wanna let the Id slip in? Man, you gotta lose your mind while you save your face You keep trying just to please your a** All the while you're a slave to your cla** You end up following the same old rules You look around, trying to clean your slate Showed up at your life so fashionably late Now all the makeup in the world won't save your face I heard my parents, yeah I heard some priests I heard Bangles' ALL OVER THE PLACE All of my advice came with monotony So mind your manners like they mine for coal - Clean your face but keep a dirty soul And let the Id slip in again and again....
