I'm living a lie because I can't tell the truth
There's a fire in the basement, A fire on the roof,
I'm just sittin' in my chair, wearin' a smile
I'm gonna manage to fit in after a while.

Didja Didja Didja
Did you get the news that I was lost at sea?
Hey hey hey
Somebody's confused, you know that couldn't be me!

I wasn't near that place, I don't know where it was
She didn't see my face, You know it's true because

[chorus]
I know why he sings, I know about these things
I know why it is caged,
So I don't know why I'm enraged.

I'm lyin' about my birth and I'm lyin' about my death
For all I'm worth, I lie with every breath
Lyin' homes are built on my crying habitations
It's the milk that I spilt, my undying lamentations

[repeat chorus]

[instrumental]

Always the bridesmaid, never the bride
Look what my bride's made out of my life.
Always the bridesmaid, never the bride,
Look what your bride's made, you know, you shouldn't have lied
Always the bridesmaid, never the bride,
You look what your bride's made, you know, you shouldn't have lied

There's a fire in the basement, A fire on the roof,
I'm just sittin' in my chair, wearin' a smile
I'm gonna manage to fit in after a while.
