Shining Examples of Class and Style

from Incredible Tales from the X​-​Class by Peck

lyrics

We mean what we say
But we like the day to day things
But who we think that we're fooling anyways

We wander this city at night
With wallets the size of our eyes
And cast aside the shame of living a lie

We dress for life at a glance
The avenue's an old runway dance
The glamour of rips in jeans and passing romance

We mean to pretend
Of leaving some meaning and then
We rattle and whine like we're children in play pens again

And all the while we lie to our friends
And all the while we lie on our taxes...again
And all the time we try to live up to something that we Can't define

We see it in seats on the A line
Improvement so easy to find
We're broken and so we're susceptible most of the time

So we got no ethics for work
But ain't nothing that we don't deserve
If given chance we'll take what we can from the earth

And all the while we lie and why not
Yeah all the while we lie about the shit that we got
And all the time we try to live up to something that we Can't define

And all the while we lie to our friends
Yeah all the while we lie to our ourselves...yet again
And all the time we try to live up to something that we Can't define
