lyrics

I'm a truth tailor, a story teller,
make me look good, make me look good...

We were good workers, loving and caring,
patient with your tantrums if you were patient with mistakes,
and I spoke of you well and you rumored and slandered
to you make you look good, make you look good
you told us you'd pay us, you told us and told us,
said we were doing great, then yell at and scold us
so I spoke of you well, but you rumored and slandered
to make you look good, make you look bigger

You're a truth tailor, a story teller,
make you look good, make you look good

No one keeps their promises here!
Except for your insults, and expectations...

You say,
"The kids don't know shit! They don't know how to work! The adults are just talk and they don't commit!"
So that's what you've got... That's what you've got...

You're a truth tailor, a story teller,
make you look good, make you look good...

It's a cheap place to live, but no money in it,
unless you're a bitter hater bull-shitter, take care of it later-er,
It offers adventures, but adventures are slim,
and I'm slimming down

You compliment in person and shit-talk when we're not around!
You're not alone... I too have partaken
stoopid noisy human trying to show off shiny crown!
We're all just talk, but you'll be the end of this town.

And you get turned on at the sight of your own flaccid dick
Make people watch... make people listen...
and you rose tint your glass so that you can cover your tracks,
Use guile and artifice to keep your position.

I'D BE LYING IF I SAID I DIDN'T DREAM OF BURNING THE WHOLE THING DOWN
Force all of you out, force all of you out
WHEN I FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT I CAN DREAM OF NOTHING ELSE
Don't repress anything, don't repress anything, don't repress anything

It's cheaper than a counselor

Chords (mostly):
Gm C F Cm
then at the end
C and F
and then some Gm and Dm
and then eventually back to C a little bit between that Gm and Dm
Ends on F.
