[Verse 1]

Sick and tired of the same ol' shit

Fighting battles I just can't win

How can you tell me what it is you want

When you don't even know yourself?

Live your life one death at a time

See the road, I can't read signs

All the wrongs just can't be right

Hear my bark before you feel my bite

[Pre-Chorus]

If you could only see

What you wanted us to see

If you could only be

What you wanted us to be

I ain't fallin' for the tricks

The schemes, the same old lies

When it's over, cry for sympathy

Don't ask why

[Chorus]

Thanks for nothin'

I said, "Nothin'"

Next time, better think

Before you speak

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

Had enough, I can take no more

I'm baggin' it, I'm out the door

How can you say you know what I mean

As you're pissin' all over my life?

Time is precious, time is mine

Waitin' here, that'd just be fine

Bless my soul, time has come

Tide had turned, see Dick run

[Pre-Chorus]

If you could only be

What you wanted us to be

If you could only see

What you wanted us to see

I'm not fallin' for the tricks

The schemes, the same old lies

When it's over, cry for sympathy

Don't ask why

[Chorus]

Thanks for nothin'

And you're gonna be nothin'

Next time, better think

Before you speak

[Bridge 1]

You never think before you speak

Sometime, think before you speak

[Bridge 2]

I've been watching you

Barely stand to look you

In the face

All tolerance, not popularity

There is someone here

To take your place

[Bridge 3]

Why don't you think before you speak?

You never think before you speak

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

If you could only see

What you wanted us to see

If you could only be

What you wanted us to be

I ain't falling for the tricks

The schemes, the same old lies

When it's over, cry for sympathy

Don't ask why

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

If you could only see

What you wanted us to see

If you could only be

What you wanted us to be

I'm not falling for the tricks

The schemes, the same old lies

When it's over, cry for sympathy

Don't ask why

[Chorus]

Thanx for nothin'

Thanx for nothin'

Next time, better think

Before you

[Outro]

Hit the road
