Gimme some words I can live by
Gimme commandments to know
Gimme some fables and proverbs
Gimme some signs where to go

I'm a desperate, lonely child and I don't have enough
I've come to know the rules and laws and scriptures of love

If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it don't exist - you make it!
If it ain't broke - break it!

If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it's gone to sleep - you wake it!
If it ain't broke - break it!

Everything I've ever dreamed of
Has begun to fade to black
I don't know where I ever lost love
Or where to go now to get it back

There are designated angels who just might save our souls.
They give you words to live by - and that's all that I know

If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it don't exist - you make it!
If it ain't broke - break it!

If it ain't real - fake it!
If it ain't yours - take it!
If it's all gone bad - forsake it!
And if it ain't broke - break it!
