Sometimes it's better to lie than say all the things I got on my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes I wonder if I'm livin' my life waiting to die (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes it's better to lie than say all the things I got on my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes I wonder if I'm livin' my life waiting to die (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Small dog in that big town Little dog in that big pound If you can't bite then just sit down Better fight it just quit now Full of bull like a pit now Talking shit with that big mouth Get written out, that script ouch (Bye) Like a fish out of the water This only gets harder Feels like I just started No time to get caught I been working on me Therapy once a week It ain't cheap But I'd rather pay the fee Instead of cheat on you And you could hate me, I don't mind And you could hate me, I don't mind And you could hate me, I don't mind Yeah you could hate me, I don't mind Sometimes it's better to lie than say all the things I got on my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes I wonder if I'm livin' my life waiting to die (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes it's better to lie than say all the things I got on my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes I wonder if I'm livin' my life waiting to die (Yeah, yeah, yeah) I'm killin' the vibes, killin' the vibes All of this waitin' around killin' the vibes Sellin' you dreams, wasting time that I can't buy Wouldn't give me peace of mind Attitudes seemed to change when we roll up How it taste when you taste your own medicine? Quality of my life is in no budget Gave me all dirty looks when I look back You can hate me, I don't mind You can hate me, I don't mind You can hate me, I don't mind You can hate me, I don't mind Sometimes it's better to lie than say all the things I got on my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes I wonder if I'm livin' my life waiting to die (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes it's better to lie than say all the things I got on my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sometimes I wonder if I'm livin' my life waiting to die (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Pretty good ending, huh?
