Lyrics

How does it feel
To take the blame
How does it feel
To be behind the drain

Because you take what you can get and ask for more
You never get what you deserve and that's the score
Remember that the life you save may be your own
But when you're bankrupt you won't get another loan

I hope that you'll accept my sympathy
But understand I gotta think it's better him than me
It's better him than me
A chain is just as strong as its weakest link
When you endure the strain it's always later than you think
It's later than you think

Resigned to a life of chronic celibacy
With fond memories and cheap pornography
God forbid I ever wanted intimacy
No more
Thats outta the door
God forbid I should feel
I know that ain't real

But now I feel like I could rape a nun
And it's always the first kiss that gets you drunk
That gets you drunk
So I keep a habit on her face
While I listen to that yes song
"Yours is no disgrace"
Mine is no disgrace
No, no disgrace

How does it feel
To fade away
How does it feel
To be beneath the train

Life disguised behind a backward mask
A little dignity is all I ask
Many people cross the beach and leave no trace
Well I'm hoping for my footprints to remain
....I know that ain't real

But now I feel like I could rape a nun
And it's always the first kiss that gets you drunk
That gets you drunk
So I keep the habit on her face
While I listen to that yes song
"Yours is no disgrace"
Mine is no disgrace
No, no disgrace

Mine is no, mine is no disgrace
