Lip Service Songtext
von Humble Abode

Take me for a joyride, or kick me to the curb
It never was implied
You drive a hard bargain, we crash and burn
I beg your pardon

We′re in full swing, but I'm feeling out of my league
When I′m taking one for the team

Don't drop the ball, it's in your court
Touch base and don′t sell me short (short)
It′s par for the course (it's par for the course)

We′re so in sync, don't skip a beat
To no avail, we′ve been derailed


A one track mind, it stops on a dime
Cash in your pretty penny, a bigger bottom line
My two cents are worthless
Withdraw the thoughts that make me nervous
Pay me lip service

I'm now catching hell
Not holier than thou
I′m on my knees worshipping and
Puncturing my heart with a church key

Dig your heels into this slippery slope
Cracked rose-tinted lenses in your kaleidoscope
A sight for sore eyes, more than you realize

Bite your tongue, what's done is done

Impeccable chemical reaction
Satisfaction not guaranteed
It's bittersweet when I need your affection
