You got Friends sittin' on the front porch, oh no
You scratch their back, oh, and they'll scratch yours
Don't you see what's going on
You doing everything you always said was wrong
So don't misdirect yourself
You're talking to people behind closed doors
You say you're givin' advice, I say you're givin' more
Don't you see what's gone wrong
You're acting like the people you always piss on
So don't misdirect yourself
You paint a new coat on crumbling walls
You get the poorest to do the hard work while you talk on
Don't you see what's going on
Seems we're all the same, bottom to top, and all
So don't misdirect yourself
Let's change it up
You put yourself on that shelf, a lovely song
You're screaming above a whisper with corrupted lungs
Letting the dust come to you, it don't take long
It's all gone wrong, it's all gone wrong
It's all gone wrong
So don't misdirect yourself
