Keep the Change, You Filthy Animal lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you having trouble finding sleep at night
Or does your lack of conscience tell you everything's alright?
I trust your good intentions that you're watching over friends
But you must think that I'm crazy if I don't see through that grin

[Chorus]
So tell me what your best friend knows that I don't know
Tell me why you 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 everywhere you go
I just want to know what your best friend knows

[Verse 2]
So vindictive, you'll say anything you like
The smile you fake, the steps you take
You know you never could get it right
And talk is cheap so make believe your secrets find the grave
It's too late, you gave up your last chance to walk away

[Chorus]
So tell me what your best friend knows that I don't know
Tell me why you 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 everywhere you go
I just want to know what your best friend knows
[Bridge]
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
Big plans are coming undone
That's just typical, you're so 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
Big plans are coming undone
That's just typical, you're so cynical
Couldn't have me, I didn't want you
You set yourself up to lose

[Chorus]
So tell me what your best friend knows that I don't know
Tell me why you 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 everywhere you go
I just want to know what your best friend knows
What your best friend knows
I'm never gonna let this go
What your best friend knows
