When you're up or when you're down

Might as well get out of town

'Cause they're gonna put the blame on you

If you work you'll be set free

Maybe win the lottery

Or else they'll put the blame on you



You can try

You can fly

Don't worry 'cause they're gonna put the blame on you



Just a child or hardly old

Always done what you were told

And still they put the blame on you

Have faith in society

Never seen it work have we

And they're gonna put the blame on you



You can give to a charity

Hope it reaches those in need

Not to put the blame on you

Eat too much and wreck your health

It's a habit you tell yourself

You'll have to put the blame on you

Sex seems right if it feels good

But if it ends in motherhood

You guessed, they'll have to put the blame on you
