Trilemma Lyrics - Steve Kilbey

Where'd you get the stolen impression 

Where'd you get the wrong direction 

Where'd you get the answer where there isn't one 

Where'd you get the idle nerve from 

Where'd you get the angle uncut from 

Where'd you get the ending when it's just begun 

Everybody searchin' for gratification 

No one's got a grip on the situation 

I just can't believe the things you say 

How'd you ever expect to feel it 

How'd you ever expect to steal it 

How'd you come to be here when you can't get in 

How'd you think it was gonna end up 

Why'd you want to send your friend up 

How's it gonna be when the cold sets in 

Everybody's down for a New Year's honor 

They're all working on a new persona 

I just can't believe the things you say 

When do you think it's gonna get better 

When do you think you'll break these fares (2:33) 

When do you learn to ask for another one 

When do you stop counting your blessings 

When do you stop learning your lessons 

When do you understand it isn't much fun 

Everybody's trying to do their best 

And the wicked don't get no rest 

I just can't believe the things you say
