By contrast his songwriting partner, guitarist Ted Feldman, grew up playing the cello and carefully selects his answers, admitting to being “a bit of a control freak.”

[Verse 1]
Am G Am
Trained to be a bone digger
G Am
A soul sister, a born winner
G Am
And maybe we are two sinners
G
Who go bigger, but burn quicker
[Pre-Chrous 1]
Am G
The lies, the lies, the bullshit and the lies
Am G
Like oh, I could have died, yeah, lucky to be alive
Am G
I want truth and reason, clean and decent
Am G
I want new school teachings, deeper meanings
F (hold for 4 measures)

Thought I'd be a bone digger
G Am
A stone figure, a quick trigger

A nice picture; the lights flicker

The lies, the lies, the bullshit and the lies
