Select language to translate this lyric
You slouch in smoky corners of this town
Fake sentiments follow you around
You drop jokes like they're dragging you down
You cling onto a vintage way of life
Don't accept that it should be left behind
Pitiful puns like a constant rewind
And this can't be your somewhat fair
Just pointing out what isn't there
Ah one step forward, two steps back
Punch lines like a heart attack
Your tolerance will never crack
So its one step forward, two steps back
It's odd what people will laugh at sometimes
If they feel that it's rude to draw the line
When they feel that they have to incline
But the underlying hatred stuck inside
Primitive bias and the pride
You drop jokes and we kick them aside
And this can't be your somewhat fair
Just pointing out what isn't there
Ah one step forward, two steps back
Punch lines like a heart attack
Your tolerance will never crack
So its one step forward, two steps back
And this can't be your somewhat fair
Just pointing out what isn't there
Ah one step forward, two steps back
Punch lines like a heart attack
Your tolerance will never crack
So its one step forward
Ah one step forward, two steps back
Punch lines like a heart attack
Your tolerance will never crack
So its one step forward, two steps back
