Lyrics:
In my fight against stupidity
I’ve done such stupid things
In my fight against cruelty
I’ve done such cruel things
In defense of my security
I’ve done such reckless things
In defending insecurities
I broke my home
Why don't you do as I say, don't do as I do
Why do I do what I do, or say what I say
CHORUS:
I DON’T PRACTICE WHAT I PREACH
WHY DON’T I DON’T PRACTICE WHAT I PREACH
In defense of sensuality
I’ve done such pious things
In defending my identity
I lost my own
I took that road, the route I told you not to go
I spoke those words, those I know best kept unheard
CHORUS
In my fight against stupidity
I’ve done such cruel things
In my fight against cruelty
I’ve done such stupid things
Why don't you do as I say, don't do as I do
Why do I do what I do, or say what I say
CHORUS...
