Lyrics
one of these days
it's times like these
i gotta wonder why
look in the mirror
stare myself in the eye
wonder why the truth
is telling a lie
wonder why my limits
won't let me try
i've had it up to here
with praise of my name
i've heard it for years
i've played their game
the admiration's fine
but it isn't the same
as a bottle of wine
served with a bottle of shame
the easy part is over
i care, but i don't dare
two kinds of love
don't even compare
i tried to be good to you
i don't want to share
with another
brother
judas
with beautiful hair
one of these days
i'm gonna stake my claim
the easy part is over
now it's onto the game
i tried to be good to you
i don't wanna share
with another
brother
judas
with beautiful hair
one of these days
i'm gonna stake my claim
the easy part is over now it's
onto the game
the miracle men
with a gleam in their eye
selling snake oil with venom
oh, they know you will buy it
i don't know who to blame
you said he already came
well now what's left but
cleaning up the mess he made
it's your life, not mine
i don't wanna pry
but i'm the one who really wants
to give you a ride
if i'm silent when i see you
don't assume it's pride
because i'm crazy, afraid
going out of my mind
