Third Eye Blind - Don't Believe A Word lyrics

Cigarette fingers amber stain Incriminating notes on a paper chain Did you ever get the feeling that you've been cheated? I wanna bust out, I've not been defeated They're all straw boats they hold no water Got the whiplash smile, but this gets harder Time has wound down and now we've been cast Because half measures are all half-a**ed How did we ever end up this way? And I've gone numb in disarray Cultivating my ignorance Didn't we have some standards once? I hate you and your cowboy boots Though we wanted clever, but settled for stupid Threw it all away so indiscreet Like a bad boyfriend, he's a dirty little cheat It's a shallow vicious state of mind Like an angry drunk getting dumped online Give me back my photos, will you? You f**ing who*e I'll k** you! (Don't believe it) Don't believe a word (Don't believe) Just keep on breathing (Don't believe) 'Cause pretty soon (Don't believe) That Good King George will wake up screamin' Our soundtrack is a soulless thing Some dull ache replaced the sting Rap stars brag about shooting each other? What ever happened to "brother, brother"? We like thugs when they attack And we like crime when it's black on black Isn't this you cold-hearted fake? Isn't this more than you can take? (Don't believe it) Don't believe a word (Don't believe) Just walk on by (Don't believe) Just explode the gas (Don't believe) And then we all, can all get high yeah (Don't believe it) Don't believe it (Keep on dreaming) Just keep on breathing (Don't believe) Oh, pretty soon (Don't believe) That Good King George will wake up screamin' Wake up screamin', ha-ha-ha-ha... Wake up screamin', ahhhhhh... YEAAAAAHHHH!!!! (YEAAAAAHHHH!!!!) YEAAAAAHHHH!!!! (YEAAAAAHHHH!!!!) YEAAAAAHHHH!!!! (YEAAAAAHHHH!!!!) YEAAAAAHHHH!!!! (YEAAAAAHHHH!!!!) Round up all the big linchpins I hope we don't get fooled again All sensation makes no sense You got some insane confidence I can't find myself, I can't change the station In this corporate, sell-out hillbilly nation Scandalize now with such ease America give me back my keys Sand it blows, the soldiers squeeze A trigger on fake enemies We're all abroad and all alone 'Til you come home, bring 'em home (Don't believe it) Don't believe a word (Don't believe) Just keep on breathing (Don't believe) 'Cause pretty soon (Don't believe) That Good King George will wake up screamin' (Don't believe it) Don't believe a word (Keep on dreaming) Don't believe a word, no! (Don't believe it) Don't believe a word (Don't believe) Don't believe a word.
