Lyrics

She came through inspections, towards me in sections
The life disappeared from the room
She asked me politely, may I put this lightly
The death that you thought was exhumed
It's buried beneath us since I wrote the thesis
I think I know better than you
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
It's buried beneath us since I wrote the thesis
Who taught you to live like that?
You circulate freely, surrender completely
Wind up alone in the road
The light's gettin' brighter
The prize to the fighter
And now we got somethin' to hold
And if it gets heavy, you can't keep it steady
Remember the things you been told
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
It's buried beneath us since I wrote the thesis
Who taught you to live like that?
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Who taught you to live like that?
Sounds a bit offside, judgin' who just died
Who'll be the first to speak?
The piano was upright, attendance was uptight
Countin' the days of the weak
But 'round about midnight, your comments were highlight
The party spilled into the street
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
Who taught you to live like that?
But 'round about midnight, your comments were highlight
Who taught you to live like that?
