On the Fritz Lyrics
[00:43.84] He wished to right the wrongs
[00:45.57] He sang religious songs
[00:53.16] He kept the private he
[00:55.60] Under the lock and key
[01:02.83] Heat keeps risin' in an age of passion
[01:07.97] Shakes a conscience to the core
[01:12.97] Stopgap, hand-slap, take a tongue-lashin'
[01:17.95] My poor soul can't take any more
[01:22.26] On the fritz
[01:26.61] On the fritz
[01:31.27] There he sits
[01:35.64] On the fritz
[02:00.11] He kept his ego there
[02:02.98] It was a sad affair
[02:09.85] The inner circle knows
[02:12.42] And so the story goes
[02:20.70] Airborne rumors chip away the image
[02:24.36] But you knew the stakes were high
[02:29.31] First they got you thinking you're a prophet
[02:34.47] Now they've got you living a lie
[02:38.31] On the fritz
[02:43.36] On the fritz
[02:47.49] There he sits
[02:52.20] On the fritz
[02:56.47] So the crowds grew, and their praise did too
[03:00.00] And a mailing list sent you money
[03:02.43] So they love Jerry Lewis in France
[03:04.51] Does that make him funny?
[03:06.02] It's too late for apologies when trust has been betrayed
[03:10.89] Now victims of your double life are namin' names
[03:36.50] He kept his ego there
[03:38.95] It was a sad affair
[03:43.45] On the fritz
[03:46.85] The public's had enough
[03:48.66] They've come to call your bluff
[03:56.68] Small talk breeds where kingdoms come crashing
[04:00.52] Rumor conquers where it wills
[04:05.22] No one hears you, go ahead and cash in
[04:09.94] If you don't die to yourself, pride kills
[04:14.58] On the fritz
[04:18.63] On the fritz
[04:22.90] There he sits
[04:27.73] On the fritz
[04:30.94] On the fritz
[04:34.49] Pride kills
[04:35.78] On the fritz
[04:39.96] There he sits
[04:45.09] On the fritz
[04:46.24] On the
[04:47.97] Fritz
[04:49.96]
[00:45.57] He sang religious songs
