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.
|
|
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.
