Keep The Change You Filthy Animal

Are you having trouble finding sleep at night?

Or does your lack of conscience tell you

Everything's all right?



I trust your good intentions

That you're watching over friends

You must think that I'm crazy

If I don't see through that grin



So tell me what your best friend knows

That I don't know

Tell me why you talk me down

(Talk me down)

Wherever you go

You're a saint, you're a queen

And I'm just another

Boy without a crown

Tell me why you sell me out

(Sell me out)

Everywhere you go

I just wanna know

What your best friend knows

(What your best friend knows)



So vindictive

You'll say anything you like

The smile you fake, the steps you take

You know you never could get it right



Talk is cheap

So make believe your secrets find the grave

It's too late

You gave up

Your last chance to walk away



So tell me what your best friend knows

That I don't know

Tell me why you talk me down

(Talk me down)

Wherever you go

You're a saint, you're a queen

And I'm just another

Boy without a crown

Tell me why you sell me out

(Sell me out)

Everywhere you go

I just wanna know

What your best friend knows



You stand a little too tall

Say a little too much

You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue

You tried a little too hard

Now I'm calling that bluff

That's just typical

(Typical)

You're so cynical

(Cynical)

Couldn't have me

I didn't want you

You're selling me out

To the girl I can't afford to lose



You stand a little too tall

Say a little too much

You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue

You tried a little too hard

Now I'm calling that bluff

That's just typical

(Typical)

You're so cynical

(Cynical)

Couldn't have me

I didn't want you

You set yourself up to lose



So tell me what your best friend knows

That I don't know

Tell me why you talk me down

(Talk me down)

Wherever you go

You're a saint, you're a queen

And I'm just another

Boy without a crown

Tell me why you sell me out

(Sell me out)

Everywhere you go

I just wanna know

What your best friend knows

(What your best friend knows)

I'm never gonna let this go

(What your best friend knows)
