Pardon Me For Living

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Pardon me for being such a disappointment Pardon me for making so many mistakes Pardon me for betraying your gracious employment Pardon me I guess I just haven't got what it takes [Pre-Chorus 1] I don't know what you want, don't know what you believe I don't know how to act anymore Or how long I can keep juggling [Chorus] Can I ever possibly hope to pass inspection? Can't I just confess and be forgiven? Guilty of the grievous crime of human imperfection Pardon me Pardon me I'm sorry [Verse 2] Now pardon me for saying all things are not equal Pardon me for claiming something's gotta give Pardon me but there's no point in wasting time Trying to round up the dealers When some people's future's so bleak they need drugs Just to get up the courage to live [Pre-Chorus 2] There in another kingdom life is sacred, love commendable Here we bow the knee to progress Where we're all secretly expendable [Chorus] Yeah, can I ever possibly hope to pass inspection? Can't I just confess and be forgiven? Guilty of the grievous crime of making such suggestions Pardon me Pardon me I'm really sorry [Bridge] Yeah I hope my Congressperson can forgive me I hope I've not offended my beloved President But I wanna know Where is that nation under God With liberty and justice and blah blah blah It was a great idea on paper But it hasn't actually happened yet [Pre-Chorus 3] Now maybe I'm a wild card or maybe I'm a trend Maybe I'm a two hundred million headed monster And you will hear from us again [Chorus] Oh can I ever possibly hope to pass inspection? Can't I just confess and be forgiven? Guilty of the grievous crime of making these suggestions Pardon me Pardon me Oh pardon me Yeah pardon me Pardon me for living
