This Is How It Goes
[Verse 1]
This is how it goes:
You'll get angry at yourself
And think you can think of something else
And I'll hear the clanging of the bells
'Cause I can't stop you baby

[Verse 2]
'Cause I don't have the bribery in place
No bright shiny surface to my face
So I won't go near the market place
With what I'm selling lately
'Cause this is how it goes

[Chorus]
'Cause it's all about drugs
It's all about shame
And whatever they want
Don't tell 'em your name

[Verse 3]
This is how it goes:
One more failure to connect
With so many how could I object?
And you, what on earth did you expect?
Well, I can't tell you, baby
When this is how it goes
[Chorus]
'Cause it's all about drugs
It's all about shame
And whatever they want
Don't tell 'em your name

[Outro]
So I'll try to hold on
While you try to let go
You won't tell me it's gone
But, baby, I'll know
Baby, I'll know
Baby, I'll know
