It's just so dumb and stupid

The way you behave

Egotistic, condescending

Like the speech that you gave

You call 'em names

Don't waste a breath in-between

You point 'em fingers

Of course your own slate's clean

Do you like it

You really do

And when the common ground is set

And the compromises met

It all starts over again

And then you're done. You're so over it again. But then you dwell on what has and what could've been

Is it the way you like it? All this made-up controversy? Can't you see that you are your own worst enemy

You are your own enemy

Still you like it, you like it, you like it

So dumb and stupid

The way we behave

A lotta words, no meaning

Just attention we crave

We cross lines

Don't miss a step in between

Won't bear the blame

Of course our own slate's clean

Do we like it

Can't say we do

When will the common ground be set

More compromises to be met

Let's start it all over again

And then you're done. You're so over it again. But then you dwell on what has and what could've been

Is it the way you like it? All this made-up controversy? Can't you see that you are your own worst enemy

You are your own enemy

Still you like it, you like it, you like it

You are your own enemy

Still you like it, you like it, you like it

Made-up controversy, a dear addiction

A lotta words, no meaning, mere superstition

 

And then you're done. You're so over it again. But then you dwell on what has and what could've been

Is it the way you like it? All this made-up controversy? Can't you see that you are your own worst enemy

You are your own enemy

Still you like it, you like it, you like it

You are your own enemy

Still you like it, you like it, you like it
