Scapegoat

What happened to What we were? Why did it happen? I don't know But I know that We had a good time So don't even worry I don't blame you I blame them Well, I'm the scapegoat But I don't care It's ok I don't mind, I'll bear it I'm the scapegoat Driving dirty used to be So fun to us But now its blasphemy What do they know anyway? But if we did it again We'd probably get caught I don't blame you though Don't even worry You're a good guy Well, I'm the scapegoat But I don't care It's ok I don't mind, I'll bear it I'm the scapegoat They wear their suits But I don't wear mine They look clean cut While I look scruff They read the paper I do what I should The times were good though They came and left Left to early I'd say Well, I'm the scapegoat But I don't care It's ok I don't mind, I'll bear it I'm the scapegoat So I paid their fines And broke my back Doing pointless tasks But now I know That loving this Wasn't wrong, it was right So if they tell me otherwise I'll turn a shoulder And I'll leave it all behind Being a scapegoat wasn't bad Just another experience I'm glad it happened I'm glad I'm clean I'm the scapegoat
