Sometimes i'm dirty, sometimes i'm clean
Sometime i talk in circles so i don't know what i mean
Although i am uncertain, one thing seems clear
I don't know very much, but i'm still glad to be here

Because i've got a conscience and he's got the same name
When it goes badly he gets the blame
When it goes good i get the acclaim
When i get hit he feels the pain

Weren't you before me or were in the past
You'll have to excuse me, i didn't think that this was going to last
Well, i heard the road that spirals down
Has been paved with the best intentions that can be found

I've got a conscience and he's got a name
When it goes badly he gets the blame
When it goes good i get the acclaim
When i get hit he feels the pain
