You'll be lonely tonight

(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew)

If they say that you did it you did it
And they won't stop until you admit it
You've been guilty to them
Ever since the day you were born

If they say that you mean it you mean it
And there's no way they'll leave you to clean it
They've been waiting for this
Ever since you blew that horn

Choose your words carefully
There's a judge behind every tree
Your jury of peers has lived half your years
But somehow they all agree

You're gonna be lonely tonight
Yeah, you'll be lonely tonight
You'll be lonely tonight
The plaques are fallin' off the wall

If they want you to fall down you'll fall down
They won't give you the time just to crawl down
They're weak with power one frail finger
Can switch off your light

If they wanna set fires they'll set fires
And go home and plug in all their wires
To watch the murder and rape shows
The caught on tape shows tonight

All yours friends disappear
The association didn't exist
All the years leave dried up tears
That instantly insist

You'll be lonely tonight
Yeah, you'll be lonely tonight
You'll be lonely tonight
Waitin' for your friends to call

You'll be lonely tonight
Yeah, you'll be lonely tonight
You're gonna be lonely tonight
Boy you'll be lonely tonight

You'll be lonely tonight
Yeah, you'll be lonely tonight
You're gonna be lonely tonight
Boy you'll be lonely tonight

You're gonna lonely tonight
Yeah, you'll be lonely tonight
You're gonna be lonely tonight
Yeah, you'll be lonely tonight
