Delivering Idiots lyrics

I�m grateful for these things 
These things are grateful for me but 
These gifts are plagues 
These plagues are candy coated 
I only hope it brings 
A smile and all the other 
Little useless things 
But these hands are tied to an arm 
And to an eye that won�t abide 

I�m not doing that well today 
And self control was never my forte 
So I call a friend 
Jesus with a pager and Mercedes Benz 
Cuz there�s a limit to ourselves 
And all the games we play 
It�s metaphor we use to define our day 
It�s only rhythm 
It�s only sound 
But we�re not accustomed to the tempo 
And we find it too loud 
And all the time� 

CHORUS 
You look like a star 
And I talk like a fool 
I�m delivering idiots and photographs 
It makes me look cool 

I�m doing much better today 
It�s just harder to focus 
On the things that I hate 
I�m not too worried cuz I know 
I�ll get my vision back 
Then at least I�ll have a weapon 
To defend these attacks 

If I could only find a filter 
For these tricks 
Then I could bury the riddles deep 
Deep in the mix 
It�s not the lines 
It�s more the tones 
More often it�s the volume 
That can make it hit home 

It�s not the songs 
That determine if the record sells 
It�s the faces in the videos 
that we know so well 
It�s the push from the whores 
In leather chairs 
They package our emotions 
And they market our fears 
And the rise to the top is a fall from below 

I�ve never been one to see writing on walls 
Still you call me crazy 
Don�t walk on in don�t expect me to listen 
Don�t you try to save me 

Because I�m too suspicious of long 
Explanations that 
Make you feel like 
You�ve really reached me 
I�m changing my ways I believe 

Don�t talk about 
What happened 14 hours ago 
It�s ok if you smile 
But please
