Ego Is Not A Dirty Word

If I did not have an ego, I would not be here tonight

If I did not have an ego, I might not think that I was right

And if you did not have an ego, you might not care the way you dressed

And if you did not have an ego, you'd just be like the rest

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Don't you believe what you've seen or you've heard?

Well if Jesus had an ego, he'd still be alive today

And if Nixon had no ego, he might not be in decay

And if you did not have an ego, you might not care too much who won

And if I did not have an ego, I might just use a gun

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Don't you believe what you've seen or you've heard?

Some people keep their egos in a bottom drawer

A fridge full of Leonard Cohen

Have to get drunk to walk out the door

Stay drunk to keep on going

So if you got an ego, you better keep it in good shape

Exercise it daily and get it down on tape

'Cause ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Don't you believe what you've seen or you've heard?

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word, dirty word, dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Don't you believe what you've seen or you've heard?

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Ego is not a dirty word

Don't you believe what you've seen or you've heard?
