I could be anything You want me to be Cook you nice dinners And then gently rub your feet I could be a perfect wife And be your slave for life But I won′t, no I won′t
I could be the sweetest thing You think you′ve ever seen Dress up in skimpy clothes All to fulfill your dreams I could do anything To show how much u mean But I won′t, no I won′t
[Chorus:] I′ll be a fly in your soup The one that′s always in your face Try to wave me away I′ll be right back on your case I′m the stain on your suit Yeah, the one you can′t replace Just because I can I′ll be the itch on your back On a spot that you can′t reach I′m the reason you crack Yeah, I′m like a bad disease Just because I can Just because I can
I could be the mistress Who says she doesn′t care And I′ll keep on smiling When you′re treating me like air I could be your best friend The one who′s always there But I won′t, no I won′t
[Chorus]
I am gonna be the thing in your head Keeping you awake at night in your bed And every time you feel you′re losing control Remember I′m the one who dug you that hole Just because I can
See the devil on the doorstep now. My, oh my. Telling everybody, oh, just how to live their lives. Sliding down the information highway, Buying them just like a bunch of fools. Time is tickin′ and we can′t go back. my, oh my.
What about the world today? what about the place that we call home? We′ve never been so many, And we′ve never been...so alone.
You keep watching from your picket fence, You keep talking but it makes no sense. You say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are. You wash your hands, you come out clean, But you fail to recognise, the enemy is within. You say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are. We are.
One step forward making two steps back. My, oh my. Buying pity on the bad boy′s back for life. Lining up for the grand illusion. No answers for no questions asked, Lining up for the execution, without knowing why...
You keep watching from your picket fence, You keep talking but it makes no sense. You say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are. You wash your hands, you come out clean, But you fail to recognise, the enemy is within. You say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are. We are.
It′s all about power, by taking control, Breaking the will, erasing the soul. They suck us dry till there′s nothing left. My, oh my. My, oh my.
What about the world today? What about the place that we call home? We′ve never been so many, But we′ve never been.....So alone.
So alone.
You keep watching from your picket fence, You keep talking but it makes no sense. You say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are. You wash your hands, you come out clean, But you fail to recognise, the enemy is within. You say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are. We are.
