Lyrics

Most people, they have one of you
The one that gives them a headache or two
Doomed to destroy yourself
with your stubborn virtue

Sit around watching Ricki Lake
Resigned to pay for an admittedly big mistake
Just trying to kill time
until you've dulled the ache
(inside your head, but)

That's not you, man
Straighten up now, make a plan
Somewhere in there you know why you began
You gotta finish what you started

So most days you just want to scream
Playing hide and seek with your slippery self-esteem
If I might say so
It's not as bad as it seems

So here's what I think you should do
Go out and excersize your amazing follow-through
And act like
the person I knew
(before this all started, because)

That's not you, man
Straighten up now, make a plan
Somewhere in there you know why you began
You gotta finish what you started

Days go on and on
In your private pity marathon
No matter what I do
I can't make you happier by loving you

That's not you, man
Straighten up now, make a plan
Somewhere in there you know why you began
You gotta finish what you started
