I’ll Make Up My Own Lies Lyrics by Joe Walla

2022

[Intro]
The best lacks all conviction while the worst [?]
[Verse 1]
Preacher says, I've got to pray to his god
If I want to see the light
The bossman says, I've got to work for him
If I want to feed my pride
Politician says, I've got to vote for him
If I want a better life
[Chorus]
They tell me all their answers, but I'll just make up my own truths and I'll make up my own lies
I'll make up my own lies
I'll make up my own lies
[Verse 2]
Pray in your corner, and I'll stay in mine
And vote on election day and I'll do whatever the hell I like
Work all day long so you can tell me why
This life that I'm living is just one big fucking lie
[Verse 3]
Teacher says, I've got to read the right books
If I want to see the light
Doctor says, I've got to take the right pills
If I want to stay alive
Policeman says, I've got to follow all the laws
If I want to survive
[Chorus]
They tell me all their answers, but I'll just make up my own truths and I'll make up my own lies
I'll make up my own lies
I'll make up my own lies
[Outro]
Swallow all your bitter pills, and I'll throw away mine
Read all the right books and I'll do whatever the hell I like
Follow all of your laws so you can't tell me why
The life that I'm living is just one big giant fucking lie
