Billy Talent

what you say is what you get (don't ya know)
fishin for the answer with a line an sinker
look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

today i don't feel pretty
i am tired of trying to fit rigth in
don't think they're so great
'cause being great must suck

we don't always see the bright side
we all need ego suicide
you hung id today
but i have licked my wounds and carried on

everybody needs some simpathy
santa seemed to miss my chimeny
reality is truley scaring me so set 'em straight and finally say

what you say is what you get (don't ya know)
fishin for the answer with a line an sinker
look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

my heart is in the right place
so wipe that smirk right off your face
don't make me feel like that
'cause that's just plain not nice

we don't always see the bright side
and i lied when i said i was fine
you slapped my face today
but i have licked my wounds and carried on

everybody needs some simpathy
santa seemed to miss my chimeny
reality is truley scaring me
so set 'em straight and finally say

what you say is what you get (don't ya know)
fishin for the answer with a line an sinker
look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

everbody needs some simpathy
santa seemed to miss my chimney
you stole my luck from me
and now my fortune cookie's empty
'cause you came and you stole it all from me
so set 'em straight and finally say


what you say is what you get (don't ya know)
fishin for the answer with a line an sinker
look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers

Every body is tired and poor an sick of trying!
If you see me on a corner will you stop or will you splash me?
Take a look at what we've become, nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don't want it!

So I hold my breath till my heart explodes,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!

Shitty weather, bad timing, lucky penny glued to the ground,
Dirty look from total stranger, hope you get lost and you're not found!
Take a look at, what we've become, nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don't want it!

So I hold my breath till my heart explodes,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!

This is, how it, it goes!

So unscrew my head, and then rinse it out,
Polish my thoughts, turn into doubts!

So I hold my breath till my heart explodes,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!

False Conversation
in an agendum
you think we're stupid, how dare you
the rock has not been bold
of our outrightefold
we can see right through

tip toeing feeling
eyes in the ceiling
your false intentions have warned them
but we've been in your room and in your closet too
we've got one on you

lies make it better
lies are forever
lies to go home to
lies you ain't got to
lies from the alter
lies make you falter
lies keep your mouth wet
lies til your death bed
lies

inside and obvious
the fallen angel
a smilin burden with snake eyes
creates the latest trends
and i just cant pretend
dont call me your friend

and all these
lies make it better
lies are forever
lies to go home to
lies you ain't got to
lies from the alter
lies make you falter
lies keep your mouth wet
lies til your death bead
lies can make it better
lies they are forever
lies to go home to
lies you ain't got to
lies from the alter
lies make you falter
lies keep your mouth wet
lies til your death bed
LIESSSS

lies will come back to haunt you
bulletproof, your limozine
lies will come back to haunt you
hit and run, a broken dream

lies make it better
lies are forever
lies to go home to
lies you ain't got to
lies from the alter
lies make you falter
lies keep your mouth wet
lies til your death bead
lies can make it better
lies they are forever
lies to go home to
lies you aint got to
lies from the alter
lies make you falter
lies keep your mouth wet
lies til your death bed

Need more friends with wings
all the angels I know put concrete in my vains
I'd always walk home alone
So I became lifeless just like my telephone

There's nothing to lose
when no one knows your name
there's nothing to gain
but the days don't seem to change

neverplayed truth or dare
I'd have to check my mirror to see if I'm still here
my parents had no clue
that I ate all my lunches alone in the bathroom

There's nothing to lose
when no one knows your name
there's nothing to gain
but the days don't seem to change

there's nothing to lose
my notebook will explain
there's nothing to gain
and I can't fight the pain

Teacher said it's just a phase
When I grow up my children will probably do the same
Kids just love to tease
Who'd know it put me underground at age 17

There's nothing to lose
when no one knows your name
there's nothing to gain
but the days don't seem to change

there's nothing to lose
my notebook will explain
there's nothing to gain
and I can't fight the pain

Oh my girl
Your so hot when you walk you melt snow
And now that disco has finally grown old
Lets buy back our souls
So lets see
Ya we've got 5 bucks between you and me
My mental dishes are finally clean
So cleared are we

Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
The intermission's a mission on it's own
The intermission's a mission on it's own

Now here seems our wax wings have melted away
And we've only been here for one day
My faith fades away
So don't be a grey cloud when there's none in the sky
We found theres no hidden treasure to find
At least we tryed

Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
The intermission is a mission on it's own
The intermission is a mission on it's own
So dry your raincheques you cant put time on them
So dry your raincheques you cant put time on them
Grab your suitcase we don't have time to fold
Grab your suitcase we don't have time to fold

There is no doubt you throw your inbox out
There is no doubt you throw your inbox out
There is no doubt you throw your inbox out
There is no doubt you throw your inbox out...

Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
The intermission is a mission on it's own
The intermission is a mission on it's own
So dry your raincheques you cant put time on them
So dry your raincheques you cant put time on them
Grab your suitcase you don't have time to fold
Grab your suitcase you don't have time to fold
We don't have no time to fold
We don't have no time to fold
we don't have no time to fold...
