You write lies in your diary, leave it out for the world to see
You pull the wool but you can't fool me, buddy I ain't buying
All the world is staged to you, you play your part, cry on cue
But boy, your final act is through, buddy I ain't buying
Seems to me you used to be a proud-to-know-you kind of a man
And you went wrong, why women in song have taken you by the hand
You pin a dog and steal his bone, deal with friends a stepping stone
You turn to me when you're all alone, but buddy I ain't buying
You turn to me and then you take it to your own
You kick a stick down his ass by saying I ain't making
All he's got is guts for psicosis
You hit a man, he's K customers
You hit the incredibly fast, this is a classic
You take it back and say the winds blew
Let's make love, hanging in the gallery
Oh, you selfish game, you never feel like playing
You think you're a lady's pie
When you wink, I roll my eyes
You kill me, boy, with all your lies
And buddy, I ain't vying
Wonder how you sleep at night
Say your prayers and out the light
You've been wrong so long, you think it's right
But buddy, I ain't vying
Seems to me you used to be
A body-know-you kind of man
But on the level one
Women and the devil have taken you by the hand
Someday you are gonna be
Sad to look in the mirror and see
That pride is just a memory
And buddy, I ain't vying
I ain't vying
Someday you are gonna be
Sad to look in the mirror and see
That pride is just a memory
And buddy, I ain't vying
And I'm ashamed to say
To even call you me
Buddy, oh buddy, I ain't vying
