lyrics
She said I’m gonna get a new tattoo
Of a picture of Jesus
The world will say Touché
Girl your irony has finally pleased us
You can tell your daddy you’re an angel
Tell stories from an angle
Tell the devil you’re a rebel
Throw it all into a treble clef
But tell yourself you’ll never sell yourself
Short
Short
If we’re the beautiful people
Why do we feel so alone?
Here’s to everyone who wants to get a little bit high
You never meant to be stoned
You can fall in love until the morning
Fall apart without a warning
Follow through, follow the news
Or say Don’t tell me what to do
But always tell yourself you’ll never sell yourself
Short
Short
And while you’re pointing out the pictures in the stars
That are too hard to explain
You can take a trendy trip out way too far
But please come back the same
You can tell your daddy you’re an angel
Tell stories from an angle
Tell the devil you’re a rebel
Throw it all into a treble clef
But tell yourself you’ll never sell yourself
You gotta tell yourself you'll never sell yourself
Tell yourself you'll never sell yourself
