True Colors

Stop playing the victim babe It don't look good on you Then again that's all that you've ever known to do Write a little sad song and step up to the mic Run back home they'll let you know everything's gonna be alright You go tell all of your friends of what a monster I've been Paint me as dark as your little daydreams can Thank you for showing us your true colors now It's time, shine all the lights That's what you wanted anyhow Stage right. Your cue. You're on Tear down the house I see, they see, we see your true colors now Settled into your role but you ain't getting no awards But go ahead, slip on your dress, there's no way to be sure Lights, camera, action, oh you forgot your lines You already tore up the script when you hung me out to dry You have blinded their eyes You're a master of disguise One day someone's gonna wash your makeup off Thank you for showing us your true colors now It's time, shine all the lights That's what you wanted anyhow Stage right. Your cue. You're on Tear down the house I see, they see, we see your true colors now I won't lie, I bought what you sold Now I admit your act is getting old Find another crowd to take you in Make them believe then wreck it all again Thank you for showing us your true colors now It's time, shine all the lights That's what you wanted anyhow Stage right. Your cue. You're on Tear down the house I see, they see, we see your true colors now
