lyrics by stephen egerton and bill stevenson

music by stephen egerton

ain't it funny everybody

thinks that i'm a slime

and i've never done much of anything to deserve it





it's a wonder i can function

feels like i'm on trial

i need to set things straight so you'll know you can trust me





always looking never finding

got me nothing to call my own

always lying never trying

always got me nowhere





i'm just as good as my word

no matter what you've heard

don't judge me on the blown up rumours that you overheard

i'm just as good as my word

no matter what you heard

this is a different time and place and you're a different girl





heard a story not to worry

it shows that you don't know

you know everyone can do both good and evil





say you love me thinking of me

it don't make much sense

to say those things to me when you don't even trust me





always looking never finding

got me nothing to call my own

always lying never trying

always got me nowhere





i'm just as good as my word

no matter what you've heard

don't judge me on the blown up rumors that you overheard

i'm just as good as my word

no matter what you heard

this is a different time and place and you're a different girl

this is now
