People slipping in the rain,

I watch them get up again.

It makes me feel like I can too.

Just when I get off the ground,

You're back trying to put me down

Like some simpleton you can use…

Well it's the same ol' f'ing story

With your two different sets of rules

The same ol' f'ing story

One for me, two for you

It's the same ol' f'ing story...I've found.

It's the same ol' f'ing story all around...

Still some glory in my eyes,

much to everyone's surprise,

after everything you've put me through...

(yeah, well)

Friends tell me you've been around

Big fish in a big ol' town

Gobbled up all in one fell swoop

Well it's the same ol' f'ing story

With your two different sets of rules

The same ol' f'ing story

One for me, two for you

It's the same ol' f'ing story...I've found.

It's the same ol' f'ing story all around...

Still got my feet on tap to the beat

Still some glory in my eyes,

much to everyone's surprise,

after everything you've put me through...

(yeah, well)

Friends tell me you've been around

Big fish in a big ol' town

Gobbled up all in one fell swoop

Well it's the same ol' f'ing story

With your two different sets of rules

The same ol' f'ing story

One for me, two for you

It's the same ol' f'ing story...I've found.

It's the same ol' f'ing story all around...

It's the same ol' f'ing story,

You know damn well it's true

Same ol'...

Same ol'...
