Lie Detector Test

Got a caveman banging on my back door

Got a hang man hanging on my front lawn

Got an old maid wasting away in the living room

Kids in the kitchen with their mouths full of silver spoons

Got a paper full of yellow journalism

A restaurant waiter selling me words of wisdom

The small town crier is chilling with the village idiots

The big city slickers are still busy building pyramids

Got a diploma but no wall to hang it

Tags on the bathroom stall to make me famous

A job description that don't fit the bill

A fatal femme fatale dressed to kill

Get me out of this, lie detector test

My pupils inhale and exhale

My breath is a microphone check, 1, 2, what is this?

In a world where the girl's got retro tattoos

And all I've got is a gut and

Velcro black shoes

And elbows that move in a way that make space

I'm looking at you(Stay awake, stay awake)

Natural face affected by the chemical leaks

Grammatical mistakes in every sentence

I speakIt doesn't matter,

I make enough sense to seem deep

Now, look at me(Go to sleep, go to sleep)

Got a flea circus,

I'm trying to take it to the road

Got a nervous tick, they think

I'm faking it though

Got some cat in a back alley scratching up my records

Some big wigs with fat bellies asking for seconds

Got a fly girl with a landing strip begging for hot wax

A lonely upper lip and it's begging for a mustache

A prison system that listens to the parables of

Johnny Cash

A wannabe war hero who only travels in body bags

I've got a poor man's version of a rich man

I've got a small van swerving through a big land

I've got a road map that's looking a lot like a

Math testA blocked phone number and a bunk home address

I've got a way out but

I ain't trying to use it'

Cause I've got some ins and

I'ma bet all my winnings

If it hurts me more than it hurts you then

I won't hurt you

I've got more sense than virtue,

I've got a curfew, it's 12 o'clock

After that

I'll start trembling if

I get fed hip hop'

Cause I'm a

G to the R

E M L I NIf

I wasn't then why would

I say I am?

I said get me out of this lie detector test

My pupils inhale and exhale

My breath is a microphone, check 1, 2, what is this?
