Why won't you answer the telephone?
I know you're home
Is there something you're trying to hide?
Should I just go?
What's so wrong with simplicity?
You've changed your mind
Why is that so frequently?
Just settle down to unwind

Somebody's backing down I can't beleive it's you
My conscience told me I'd get screwed

The little voice in my head told me
Never back down till you get some pie
Perhaps I'll never get a slice
But the little pecker's gonna pay for all of the lies

Someone's knockin' on my brain
Delerium
Fool me twice I'll go insane
Won't even count
History confronted me twice this year
Poor circumstance
Talking to myself in the bathroom mirror
That's true romance

Somebody's backing down I can't beleive it's you
My conscience told me I'd get screwed

The little voice in my head told me
Never back down till you get some pie
Perhaps I'll never get a slice
But the little pecker's gonna pay for all of the lies

Somebody's backing down I can't beleive it's you
My conscience told me I'd get screwed

The little voice in my head told me
Never back down till you get some pie
Perhaps I'll never get a slice
But the little pecker's gonna pay for all of the lies
