It was nothing but a fantasy, I knew it
But I had a lot of fun before I blew it
Isn't that what everybody said
That you can't eat the cake if you piss on it

I put my money on a card roulette
And I kept my smile as I placed my bet
I knew what I did when I went on the ride
It's a 5-align credit on the wild side

You showed me how it was too good to be true
And that I should grow up and start sniffing the glue
But it's all around me to the left and the right
And it's eating me up and spitting me out

If you've never seen a failure then here's one!
I was doomed before I ever begun
I was on board drinking when titanic went down
And the band played on as I ordered a round

That's just how it goes (that's just how it goes)
Don't you think I know? (don't you think I know?)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)
I won't stop the show (I won't stop the show)
I just let it flow (I won't stop the flow)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)

I don't ever want to stand in line (you get it?)
Cause I could find a better waste of time (you bet it)
Everybody wants a piece of the pie
So I take what I want and I never ask why

If you wondered what would make me up
Then you'll self combust if you smell the glove
I'm a time bomb running out of batteries
And with fellas like you I don't need no enemies

That's just how it goes (that's just how it goes)
Don't you think I know? (don't you think I know?)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)
I won't stop the show (I won't stop the show)
I just let it flow (I won't stop the flow)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)

(To my, my, my, my)
(To my, my, my, my) Tell it to my face!
(To my, my, my, my)
(To my, my, my, my)

Tell it to my face!

That's just how it goes (that's just how it goes)
Don't you think I know? (don't you think I know?)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)
I won't stop the show (I won't stop the show)
I just let it flow (I won't stop the flow)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)

That's just how it goes (that's just how it goes)
Don't you think I know? (don't you think I know?)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)
I won't stop the show (I won't stop the show)
I just let it flow (I won't stop the flow)
You don't have to tell it to my face (tell it to my face)

(Tell it to my face)
(Tell it to my face)
(Tell it to my face)
