lyrics

There's only one way out of this dream.
Don't say I didn't warn you.
Once there was a child and he cried "wolf!" but no one cried for him.
Believe me when I say:

If honestly washes up on the shore I'll burn the bridge before it's built.
I'm being honest here. I'm being honest here.

If the bird forgot his song would you know the difference
From the perch at the computer you own?
Would you pick up the phone
And ask Con-Ed to turn on the power and
Standby to watch his feathers go up in flames?
No one would cry for him!- you know as well as me- And though you might find it hard to believe,
Believe me when I say:

If honesty washes up on the shore I'll burn the bridge before it's built.
I'm being honest here. I'm being honest here. I'm being honest here. I'm being honest here. I'm being honest here.

I'm being honest here.
