Been Burned by The David Nelligan Thing Lyrics

You try to be honest, you try to be fair
But don't always get the same in return
You have been betrayed, you have been ripped off
And you've been burned, oh you've been burned

If it's made you wary, you've been made aware
Sometimes you expect the worst, it's true
But I guess it must be scary 'cos I'm kind of scared
It's bringing out the worst in you

Reach a little farther, he of little faith
A little goes a long way, I am told
But when you try to be more open
You try to open up, the effort feels absurd

If you're always honest, if you're always fair
You know you won't always get the same in return
Nothing could be worth it, nothing's what you've got
When we get burned, what do we learn?

Ooh, don't, please, don't think, don't think
It'll always be like this
It won't
