Intro: |2x Is this a state that you can't control Or don't you care who you're talking to Each time when things get out of hand Why it's the same thing you always do You start to point out other people's mistakes Sometimes you even show contempt How come the way you exclude yourself Can't you see that you're not exempt? Wrong thinking gets the better of you It only takes a moment or two Comes stealin' like a thief in the night Changes every little thing in sight Wrong thinking gets the better of you. |2x Well it's the same old thing that happens Every time you react that way Tomorrow you'll want to forget Everything you said today But everytime something reminds you You play the same old game inside Any excuse in the book will do Everything can be justified. Wrong thinking gets the better of you It only takes a moment or two Comes stealin' like a thief in the night Changes every little thing in sight Wrong thinking gets the better of you. Better of you. Gets the better of you. | repeat and fade
