lyrics

You have a pretty face
but and ugly mind
and to be quite honest
I don't want to waste my time
Cause time moves so fast
but life's so short
in the long run
It's not worth a dime
No it's not worth a dime

drifting by in the plane
Well if it's just the same to you I'll just step out for a bit
let the cool breeze clear my brain
you were so into yourself
that you forgot yourself
and now you're getting jealous of you
and with clear blue skies
God fills us with little white lies
but I guess it's about time
But time made a fool of you
and now you don't know what to do with yourself
just lay down too

were you were done, done, done?
Well so am I, so am I
And when it blew, blew, blew
Did you think the Lord thought highly of you?
well same for me too

Well you have a pretty face but and ugly mind
and now it's time to wipe yourself clean
wipe yourself clean

And for a second, we thought that we could blame them
We thought that we could blame them
but the blame's all on us
