Lyrics
Intelligent designer, holocaust denier You're a liar pants on fire You got so much to say You little fly It's only entertaining for a while I wanna tell you So you know where to go When I hear you I hear nothing at all I wanna tell you So you know where to go Chameleon, love to change your ways Chameleon, gave the game away You're not what you think you are
