Well every trick in the book that you want to play
You better have a good answer to get your way
'Cause all the tricks that you pulled, and all the people you fooled
Well you started something

Well all the people that liked you just went on home
And when they could've stood by you, you stood alone
'Cause all the people you fooled and all the people you took
Well you started something

And all the signs in your head call out you're dead
But all the preachers went home and left you alone

And all the women that liked you, you fooled around
And when you got them inside you, you turned them down
'Cause all the women you fooled, and all the women you took
Well you started something

And all the lines in your head call out you're dead
And all the teachers went home and left you alone

Monkeys to the left, monkeys feeling right at home
Too many people, too many walking alone
And though they say they don't like it, you know they really don't mind
If you started something

But all the signs in your head, call out your dead
And all the teachers went home and left you alone
