A Study in Economics

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Chalk it up to the public's request for a style that they just don't understand Chalk it up to the difference between the industry supply and demand You say it bleeds when you're stabbed with a knife to the heart of what you've always believed Well, pull that bloody knife back out and wave it at the pessimism in me [Pre-Chorus] Say goodbye to all the preconceptions that you had Say goodbye to everything you've known And take the time to toe the line between what you have and what you think you'll find 'Cause I know [Chorus] Let's hear it for lack of origination It's all the same thing if you look at it right I can tell you without any hesitation that this will not survive [Verse 2] So what's the catch, what's the trick to the trade? Is it luck or is it all just a game? What's the rule for the polished charade? Is it all about what's in a name? You say it bleeds when you're stabbed with a knife to the heart of what you've always believed Well, pull that fucking knife back out and wave it at the pessimism in me [Pre-Chorus] Say goodbye to all the preconceptions that you had Say goodbye to everything you've known Take the time to toe the line between what you have and what you think you'll find 'Cause I know [Chorus] Let's hear it for lack of origination It's all the same thing if you look at it right I can tell you without any hesitation that this will not survive Three cheers for the loser generation It's all the same thing if you look at it right I can tell you without any hesitation that this will not survive tonight [Chorus] Let's hear it for lack of origination It's all the same thing if you look at it right I can tell you without any hesitation that this will not survive Three cheers for the loser generation It's all the same thing if you look at it right I can tell you without any hesitation that this will not survive No, this will not survive So kiss it all goodnight, kiss it goodnight Kiss it goodnight, kiss it goodnight
