And now I need an alibi
Always lyin'
I'll keep on right on through it
But you betrayed me
I used up nearly all my luck
I'll keep on right on through it
If that's what it takes, I'll do it
You are the king of nothing
(On through it)
When I could tell the truth
If that's what it takes, I'll do it
I wouldn't give the time of day
If that's what it takes, I'll do it
(I'll do it)
(On through it)
And now I need an alibi
If that's what it takes, I'll do it
But yesterday is gone
(I'll do it)
Things are gonna change
If this gets any stranger
For you to say goodbye
I'll keep on right on through it
You've got your finger on the pulse
If that's what it takes, I'll do it
But yesterday is gone
If this gets any stranger
(I'll do it)
(I'll do it)
I'll keep on right on through it
Things are gonna change
I didn't have to try
'Cause I can't stand the music
Always lyin'
(I'll do it)
But you shall hold me
I didn't have to try
If that's what it takes, I'll do it
Because if not, you will be soon
Because then I'd be faking
And now I need an alibi
And in my pocket, yes of course
I used up nearly all my luck
'Cause I can't stand the music
Always lyin'
So please believe me when I say
If this gets any stranger
(On through it)
I used up nearly all my luck
I'll keep on right on through it
Things are gonna change
Were you abandoned in your youth?
I didn't have to try
'Cause I can't stand the music
I'm growin' tired of waitin'
I am the voice of treason
(I'll do it)
But yesterday is gone
