Where'd you get the stolen impression Where'd you get the wrong direction Where'd you get the answer where there isn't one Where'd you get the idle nerve from Where'd you get the angle uncut from Where'd you get the ending when it's just begun Everybody searchin' for gratification No one's got a grip on the situation I just can't believe the things you say How'd you ever expect to feel it How'd you ever expect to steal it How'd you come to be here when you can't get in How'd you think it was gonna end up Why'd you want to send your friend up How's it gonna be when the cold sets in Everybody's down for a New Year's honor They're all working on a new persona I just can't believe the things you say When do you think it's gonna get better When do you think you'll break these fares (2:33) When do you learn to ask for another one When do you stop counting your blessings When do you stop learning your lessons When do you understand it isn't much fun Everybody's trying to do their best And the wicked don't get no rest I just can't believe the things you say
