You're Always Learning the Hard WayBy RYou hung your hopesOn an aluminum futureAnd you thought thatYou were set.You didn't know howgood it was gettingCause you hadn'tGotten there yetYou've yet to be as good as your younger sisterBut that isn't saying muchYou were telling me'Let's stay in touch"When you meant"Let's stay out of touch"You're always learning the hard wayHard isn't a great way to learnYou can learn toManage the damageBut it's onlya 25 ¢ returna 25¢ returnWorks for me.I proved I finally proved itI always look good to mePlease don't hold perfection against meI get reality in the 3rd degree.I luv your lovely indifferenceTwo feloniesBut alasNo arrestsWe can meet in the Media libraryI'll see if you pass the testYou're always learning the hard wayThat's good asBoth of yourselves agreeI can count on youGiving me good adviceAnd watch meDisintegrate for freeWorks for meSo fly a kite over PittsburghLet's meet where Point Park pointsWe'll watch PittsburghSink into a sink holeAnd listen for an "oink"There's always a wayOutOf an outhouseA life lived on the edgeYou can go by your2nd grade feelingsI go by Sister SledgeYou're always learning the hard wayYou always lookGood to meForget everything that I've toldThat always works for meWorks for me.
