It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel that I'll convey
Some inner truth of vast reflection
But I've said nothing so far
And I can keep it up as long as it takes
And it don't matter who you are
If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks
Because the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely
There is something amiss
I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near
To confuse the issue I refer
To familiar heroes from long ago
No matter how much Peter loved her
What made the Pan refuse to grow
Was that the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely
Suck it in suck it in suck it in if you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
Make a desperate move or else you'll win and then begin to
See what you're doing to me this MTV is not for free
It's so PC it's killing me so desperately I'll sing to thee of
Love, sure but also rage and hate and pain and
fear of self, And I can't keep these feelings on the
shelf, I've tried well no in fact I've lied
Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside
To hide or slide I'll do as I decide and let it
ride until I've died and only then shall I abide this tide
Of catchy little tunes, of hip three minute ditties
I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all of youre cities
To the ground I've found I will not mess around
Unless I play then hey I will go on all day hear what I
say I have a prayer to pray that's really all this was
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because the
Hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook
On that you can rely
