Sometime I talk in circles so I don''t know what I mean
Although I am uncertain, one thing seems clear
I don''t know very much, but I''m still glad to be here

Because I''ve got a conscience and he''s got the same name
When it goes badly he gets the blame
When it goes good I get the acclaim
When I get hit he feels the pain

Weren''t you before me or were in the past
You''ll have to excuse me, I didn''t think that this was going to last
Well, I heard the road that spirals down
Has been paved with the best intentions that can be found

I''ve got a conscience and he''s got a name
When it goes badly he gets the blame
When it goes good I get the acclaim
When I get hit he feels the pain
