Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everyone laughed at her joke
As if they'd never even heard it before
And maybe they were truly amused
But every word that she spoke was a bore
[Verse 2]
And maybe it's because they had seen
The previews on the TV screen
Well this part is good and that's well understood
So you should laugh, if you know what I mean
[Verse 3]
But it's all relative
Even if you don't understand
Well it's all understood
Especially when you don't understand
Then it's all just because
Even if we don't understand
Then let's all just believe
[Verse 4]
Everyone knows what went down
Because the news was spread all over town
And fact is only what you believe
And fact and fiction work as a team
It's almost always fiction in the end
That content begins to bend
When context is never the same
[Verse 5]
And it's all relative
Even if you don't understand
Then it's all understood
Especially when you don't understand
Then it's all just because
Even if we don't understand
Then let's all just believe
[Verse 6]
I was reading a book
Or maybe it was a magazine
Suggestions on where to place faith
Suggestions on what to believe
But I read somewhere
That you've got to beware
You can't believe anything you read
But the good book is good
And that's well understood
So don't even question
If you know what I mean
[Verse 7]
But it's all relative
Even if you don't understand
Well, it's all understood
Especially when you don't understand
Then it's all just because
Even if we don't understand
Then it's all just believe
[Verse 8]
But there you go once again
You missed the point and then you point
Your fingers at me
And say that I said not to believe
But there you go once again
You missed the point and then you point
Your fingers at me
And you say that I said not to believe
I believe
But there you go once again
You missed the point and then you point
Your fingers at me
And you say that I said not to believe
I believe
I guess
I guess it's all relative
