I got me a complication And it's an only child Concern my reputation As something more than wild I know it serves me right But I can't sleep at night I have to hide my face Or go some other place No! I won't cry out for justice Admit that I was wrong Stay in hibernation 'Til the talk subsides and gone My social life's a dud My name is really mud I'm up to here in lies I guess I'm down to size To size I can't seem to talk about The things that bother me Seems to be what everybody has Against me! (ooh! ooh! ooh! yeah!) Now here's my situation And how it really stands I'm out of circulation I've all but washed my hands My social life's a dud My name is really mud I'm up to here in lies I guess I'm down to size To size Talk, talk (4) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2) Clones (We're All) (David Carron) 3:04 (Originally composed in 1979.)
