Tell those stories to me
I'm dying to hear the things you've done and seen
Far-fetched as they may be
You strike a smile at me
Your stories ring of perjury
Construed with self-empowering theme
Suckin' on my brain, you're the teacher, I'm the student
Turnin' things around, your story's not congruent
Tabloid decoys, pitiful excuses
Turnin' things around, you're turnin' things around
Go!
A manic stunning scene
I'm taking notes, you're takin' me away
Into your false reality
I know your comfort lies
In lying to try to make your life make sense
But you're not making sense with your two cents, you're
Suckin' on my brain, you're the teacher, I'm the student
Turnin' things around, your story's not congruent
Tabloid decoys, pitiful excuses
Turnin' things around, you're turnin' things around
(Ooh, hoo-hoo-ooh) I'd say it aloud, but I'm not allowed
(Ooh, hoo-hoo) I see your head spin round and round
Broken record talk tonight
Skip that needle back and forth on your mind
Wearin' out unconvincing lies
Like a seedlin' dropped from an old oak tree
Your shade don't hide no sun from me
Fake stories humor me, it's graduation time
I love you like a mother
Suckin' on my brain, you're the teacher, I'm the student
Turnin' things around, your story's not congruent
Tabloid decoys, pitiful excuses
Turnin' things around, you're turnin' things around
Yeah, yeah... (you're turnin' things around)
Yeah, yeah, yeah... (you're suckin' on my brain)
Yeah, yeah (you're turnin' things around)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey
