Well, I read magazines so I know what it means
To be part of the problem while causing your scenes
And I roll down the windows in my limousines

And I'm practicing over the counter now
And I look good in white or in green
And I try to remember the faces of family members
When I tell them things

Ain't it the truth
And it's pulling me so hard
Ain't it the truth
It ain't taking me too far
It ain't taking me too far
It ain't taking me too far

Yeah well, I talked to Dawn and God knows what she's on
And she told me that you dated Lawrence Lee Kwan
I told her I had a girl that I'd like to call Abigail
And I'm writing a meaningless love affair

And I'm thinking of buying a pet
And I'd give it a name and I'd give it a home
And have something to never forget

Ain't it the truth
And it's pulling me so hard
Ain't it the truth
Ain't it the truth
Ain't it the truth

Yeah well, I know the truth 'cause I watch Dr. Ruth
Feeling sorry for the thing when I see Dr. King
Saying, 'I have a dream'
But the doctors just couldn't do anything

And I'm practicing over the counter now
And I look good in white or in green
And I try to remember the faces of family members
When I tell them things

Ain't it the truth
And it's pulling me so hard
Ain't it the truth
It ain't taking me too far
It ain't taking me too far
It ain't taking me too far
