Out of the Blue

Lyrics

Somewhere along the way
 My hopefulness turned to sadness
 Somewhere along the way
 My sadness turned to bitterness
 Somewhere along the way
 My bitterness turned to anger
 Somewhere along the way
 My anger turned to vengeance
 And the ones that I made pay were never the ones who deserved it
 And the ones who deserved it, they'll never understand it
 Yes, I know I'm going to hell in a purple basket
 Least I'll be in another world while you're pissing on my casket
 How could you be (oh-oh-oh)
 So perfect for me? (Oh-oh-oh)
 Why can't you ignore (oh-oh-oh)
 The things I did before? (Oh-oh-oh)
 Somewhere along the way
 Exacting vengeance gave excitement
 Somewhere along the way
 That excitement turned to pleasure
 Somewhere along the way
 That pleasure turned to madness
 Sooner or later that kind of madness
 Turns into pain
 And the ones that I made pay were never the ones who deserved it
 Those who helped me along the way, I smacked them as I thanked them
 Yes, I know I'm going to hell in a leather jacket
 Least I'll be in another world while you're pissing on my casket
 And all that I can do is sing a song of faded glory
 And all you got to do is sit there, look pretty and make 'em horny
 Together we sing songs and tell exaggerated stories
 About the way we feel today and tonight and in the morning
 
 How could you be (oh-oh-oh)
 So perfect for me? (Oh-oh-oh)
 Why can't you ignore (oh-oh-oh)
 The things I did before? (Oh-oh-oh)
 Take all your fears
 Pretend they're all true
 Take all your plans
 Pretend they fell through
 But that's what it's like (oh-oh-oh)
 That's what it's like for most people in this world
 The rich or the poor (oh-oh-oh)
 Muslims or Jews (oh-oh-oh)
 When roles are reversed (oh-oh-oh)
 Opinions are too (oh-oh-oh)
 ♪
 That's all I'm gonna say now
 ♪
 Before they come knockin' on my door now
 No, no, no, no
