Why Compromise? 歌词

I'm not pretending so don't ask why Your time is coming and that's no lie You're the exception that proves the rule From where I'm standing you're nobody's fool I've been a bad boy so do what you please Talking of pleasure speak in Japanese There's no good or evil only different degrees Hope springs eternal when you're down on your knees You read the papers I watch TV I'm tired of living in history You've had your pleasure now here comes the pain As sure as sunshine follows the rain Under my direction let me see you blaspheme Looking for a traitor if you know what I mean Overnight sensations just fade away Nothing lasts forever I don't care what you say Immaculate conception here's a word to the wise If there's no opposition why compromise There's no good or evil only different degrees Hope springs eternal when you're down on your knees Let's put our hands together and deal a pack of lies We won't live forever why compromise
