I think he’s in a jealous rage
She’s probably not the easiest one to live with either
There’s nothing worse than bitterness just splashed across a page
I don’t think that either one of them are fit to be a writer
Oh, if she’d just shut up and do what she does best
Show a little bit of skin, but keep it all when she’s undressed
Doesn’t she know that she is doing it all wrong?
You can’t tell a joke, yeah, if I’m listening to your song

Oh, and all of this talking and all of this chatter
Is making me sick even though they say it doesn’t matter
Let’s put 'em in a room or maybe they should stay apart
Or maybe words in their mouth
Yeah, let’s fuck with their hearts
'Cause nobody’s ordering change
So, let’s watch everybody bleed
'Cause everybody loves an accident
And everybody loves what they read

I think he’s gonna be a big star
A voice of social change to rearrange the world’s perspective
But there’s nothing better than watching him go down
He could pick up a habit or get in trouble
That might be effective
Oh, if he’d just shut off his conscience for one day
Take a cue from all of us and give us a song we could really play
Doesn’t he know he’s going down and going down fast?
If he keeps on being difficult, he’ll always come in last

Oh, and all of this talking and all of this chatter
Is making me sick even though they say it doesn’t matter
Let’s take away his toys, forget why we loved him at all
He is calling for backup, but we’re not strong enough to take that fall
And nobody needs to change
So, let’s all go have a beer
'Cause everybody loves an accident
And everybody loves what they hear

Two sides working together then working against one another
Oh, brother
Two bad souls are destroyed
It’s the nature of business and all of its partners

Oh, look, they’re losing all of their trust
Oh, look, they’re trying to bite the helping hand that feeds 'em
We put clothes on their back and they took the money upfront
Now they don’t like what we’re saying so, let’s up and leave 'em
We could’ve done what they are doing anyway
Some shit about digging into souls and life’s lasting misery
We’re gonna take 'em down and do it on the front page
Oh, and watch those hypocrites come crawling back on bended knee

Oh, and all of this talking and all of this chatter
Is making me sick even though they say it doesn’t matter
I’m becoming a bore now
I am wasting ashore now
We’re all busted and broken, but the subject’s unspoken
'Cause nobody really wants change
But it’s sure fun to advertise the fight
We’re feeding off each other once again
But neither one of us is getting any sleep tonight
I hope
I hope
I hope
I really hope, hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I…..
