My good looks won't save my kids
from their dad's predicament
They won't see my face like this,
see my face as a shadow

And I could be wrong,
and I could be strong

A penny rate, my love collects,
could set your eyes on fire
Instead of praying thankful hallelujahs
on the wire

And on the way, the only God
says, "Start your car"
But, baby, don't believe Him
when he tells you who you are

I could be wrong,
and you could be strong
He could be wrong,
and you could be strong

Finding out you're selfish
'cause you like your happiness
A sacrifice sent to the average king
for yourself

But buy a butterflys
and price them down to clean the racks
Until a kid like you
can buy them back

And I could be wrong,
well I could be strong
I could be wrong,
well I could be strong
