HONESTY, ETC.

(Written by Rob Bolton, 1994)

1.) You check my hat, and you say it's fine, but behind my back, you go and drop a line. / You got your laugh, you stole my date, well look me in the eye and tell me straight. / Don't hide it behind color, or age, or youth, when you open your mouth, come on, speak the truth./ (Hey you better speak the truth now brother)

CHORUS.) Honesty. Truthfulness. Faithfulness. Integrity. Honesty. Truthfulness. Faithfulness. Integrity.

2.) Been gone from the media for quite awhile, I caught a drop from Rush, but it was mostly style. / Ain't seen none lately on my TV, and even on my phone - people lying to me! / You're on your way over to borrow a buck. If it was anything less, you wouldn't show up. / Double-minded, running a little late. Conspicuously absent at the pearly gate. /

CHORUS.) as above.

(Instrumental interlude, featuring harmonica solo.)

3.) You cut in line, you run the light, you cheat on tests, it just ain't right. / Fake I.D., cheap facade, you're a child of satan and not of God. / Soon it's gonna take a toll, you're hackin' up your own soul. (Don't be hackin' up your own soul. bud.)

CHORUS.) as above.
