Artist/Band: Devo
Lyrics for Song: Plain Truth
Lyrics for Album: Total Devo [1988]



Who are you and who am I?

Except a couple of people

Wasting lots of time

Worrying about the future



Forever asking why

Some people go on living

While others die before their time

Yet there's never been a reason



Whatever is right

If only just because

It's much too big a fight

Like the painter who is way ahead



Or worse still far behind

You only punch yourself out

When you start swinging blind



These are the things too often gone unsaid

These are the things that keep you better off than dead

These are the things that keep running through your head, woo

These are the things too often gone unsaid



Who are you and who am I?

Except a couple of people

With nothing else to do

But follow vain obsessions



Making gestures towards the truth

While trying to ignore it

When it's convenient to

The symbols we believe in



Sometimes turn inside out

Reshaping each dimension

Were so sure about

Dreams get so frustrated



Fantasies turn pranks

A simple ounce of common sense

Is money in the bank
