I am an arms dealer.
Fitting you with weapons in the form of words
And I don't really care, which side wins
As long as the room keeps singing
That's just the business I'm in

This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
I'm not a shoulder to cry on, but I digress

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate

I wrote the gospel of giving up
(You look pretty sinking)
But the real bombshells have already sunk
(pre-madonnas of the gutter)
At night we're painting your trash gold while you sleep
Crashing not like hearts or cars
No, more like p-p-p-parties

This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race

Bandwagon's full. Please, catch another

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate

All the boys on the dance floor didn't love
And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough
Sing until your lungs give out

This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
(Now you)
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
(Wear out the groove)
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
(Sing out loud)
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race
(Oh, oh)
This ain't a scene, it's a god d___ arms race

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
