Dressed in blue what have they done to you?
Although they said there'd be no pain, they cut your head and took your brain
You shook their hand and in you bought then never gave another thought
Dressed in blue look what they've done to you
I call you
But I can't control
You do it for pride
Never do what you're told
And you say I can't be saved
From following this road into the grave
And you know what? I think I've heard enough
So try to get someone else to behave
Oh won't you try and get someone else to behave?
Dressed in blue we're at the door for you
Won't let me in to check your pulse, but it's your choice. You're an adult
I took your side when no one would. You turned me down and said "I'm good"
Dressed in blue we're at the door for you
I call you
But I can't control
You do it for pride
Now you'll never grow old
Everything you do is for you. That's not what you say
You turn the wrong corner every day
You want a nice life but you don't wanna change
You already have in so many ways
Remember the time you got sent home?
I walked with you so you wouldn't go alone
That's the way it was supposed to be
A house for four has room for one
But you'd never believe that you're under the gun
Yes we are wired differently
