Lyrics

By Any Other Name ©
I once knew a man who traded his balls in
For a pair of brass knuckles and a woman who’d never love him
Sold out all his friends, slighted them with an evil grin
Twisted that jagged knife on their backs ever deeper in
Well lowdown, lousy, no good
That much is understood and it’s all the same, I say all the same
Dirty, rotten, cheating, lying s o b.
All one meaning just a different name, I say a different name
Well, just a little story, one white lie
Blew it all to hell and back again with no reason why
Well, heavy hangs the head that last night wore the crown
But why’d you have to go and bring the rest of us down?
Well lowdown, lousy, no good
That much is understood and it’s all the same, I say all the same
Dirty, rotten, cheating, lying s o b.
All one meaning just a different name, I say a different name
Well, you wore out your welcome in too many homes
Probably just die alone, dusts to bones
Well, there you go again, bite off more than you can chew
A pile of shit by any other name
Would be you
Well lowdown, lousy, no good
That much is understood and it’s all the same, I say all the same
Dirty, rotten, cheating, lying s o b.
All one meaning just a different name, I say a different name
Dirty, rotten, cheating, lying s o b.
All one meaning just a different name, I say a different name
