lyrics

Well it’s fine and dandy
When you work at tandy
And you sell electric Bullshit

But sulk, cry, then eat your pie

Your mouth’s a’full of
Butterflies bears, and Bullshit

It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit

Did you want me to say
That you were the only one
But don’t fool yourself
It was fun

It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit

Well I wish we’d been in love
Until our flesh decayed
Until we’re dead in the grave

But when we get to heaven
Who said we’d be livin'
But this is the choice

The only thing I love is my guitar
The only I need is my cigar

Get in between
And find out why
I don’t make friends
I just get high

It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit

Say it’d be really cool
We could make a band
Never seen you perform
But I’m your biggest fan

Now stars are turning
That’s what fame brings
Can we make it
Can we make some Bullshit

It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit

Put all my money in futures and profits
Made the delta neutral in my wallet
Then lost it

Bulls bears, and butterflies
Look through me and it's just time
Time to win
Time to lose
Time to choose
In the end,
It's your time to lose

Got a contango of bullshit
But nowhere to lend it

I'm stupefied
Like trade-jocks and consulates
Is this the dividend
Or is this the market

Bullshit
Bullshit
Bullshit
Bullshit

Might try to drive a while
Might teach it to a kid
Might find another way
Might sleep a whole 'nother day

I think it about it for a while
Might even write it down
I try to run away
But I know
It’ll always be around

It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit

Bullshit, the way we walk around
Bullshit, there's no other word around
Bullshit, when you make demands
Bullshit, when you're full of offense
Bullshit, without it you're worthless
Bullshit, everything you've made
Bullshit, everything you'll gain
Bullshit, it's all just stuff
Bullshit, but you'll never have enough (Bullshit)

Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
It's Bullshit
