Playing Your Song

Hey you, youÔÇÖre way ahead of me

YouÔÇÖre drunk on apathy

You burned right out

Hey you, youÔÇÖre just a cripple now

We sell for millions now

They sold you out



And, oh, I had to tell them you were gone

I had to tell them they were wrong

And now theyÔÇÖre playing your song



Hey you, donÔÇÖt take it out on me

YouÔÇÖre bored of everything

You burned right out

Hey you, so bored and cynical

ItÔÇÖs fucking wonderful

They sold you out



And, oh, theyÔÇÖve bought and sold it all, it's gone

TheyÔÇÖve taken it and built a mall

And now theyÔÇÖre playing your song



Ooh, their innocence tastes like candy, yeah

Get so fat on it, itÔÇÖs a tragedy, yeah

I can help you come to me, yeah

Just bring your innocence to me, yeah



Hey you, donÔÇÖt you dare blame me

You trusted everything

They sold you out

Hey, you, now when they call it cool

ItÔÇÖs just so mean and cruel

They sold you out



And, oh, they bought and sold it all, itÔÇÖs gone

And every note of it is wrong

And now theyÔÇÖre playing your song

Yeah yeah yeah

And, oh, theyÔÇÖve bought and sold it all, it's gone

TheyÔÇÖve taken it and built a mall

And now theyÔÇÖre playing your song

They're playing, playing your song

They're playing, playing your song

They're playing, playing your song
