Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Right and wrong, cruel and kind, who's to say?
There's a code that I believe in
Every choice, you're gonna find there's shades of grey
There are rules for a reason
Robin Hood, yeah?
Awesome guy, yeah!
You'd agree?
But he stole for the poor
So you could then cross that line, theoretically
I don't know you anymore
[PreChorus]
The decision's always up to you
When there's only one thing left to do
[Chorus]
Gotta get your hands dirty
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Alright, alright
[Verse 2]
Okay, but there's some universal truths you must recognize?
Like?
Valiant knights, pure and good, guaranteed
That depends on what they're fighting for
Creepy witches selling potions for evil deeds
She could have kids she's providing for
If your good-good things will come to you
That broken vase shows that's not true
That's not fair!
But that's how it's going
You're a nice girl, but your princess is showing
[PreChorus]
Life's a complicated game, it seems
Sometimes you can't afford to play it clean
[Chorus]
Gotta get your hands dirty, I don't know
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty, maybe so
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right, right
Alright, alright
[Bridge]
But just how far do you go?
How much do you compromise?
Oh, tell me, how do you know?
Where do you draw the line?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
If my heart tells me it's right
If it's for someone I love
If it's to save a life
To save your life
[Chorus]
Gotta get your hands dirty
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Alright, alright
