It's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on
I burn it up and burn it out
He remembered when Sammy had called their father if only he had known that when Sammy had left his dad he had been inconsolable choosing to drive to Sammy's new home rather than helping Dean on a hunt.
It's always something
There's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee
That's what this is all about
Dean remembered staring at his younger brother and defending his father when he was missing and there he was badmouthing him to any person. He remembered when Sammy had left it had been good for a while no arguments and then his dad had turned to booze Sammy was the only thing that kept his dad from self-pity.
It's a never ending attack
Everything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
His dad had never looked after Dean like he looked after Sammy he knew Sammy was his younger brother but he didn't need to be protected that much did he?
And all the morons
And all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones who make the rules
It's not a game- it's just a rout
He remembered all the people his Dad had left them with they were mainly whisky drinkers they hadn't cared for him they were just there,
There's desperation
There's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes
And no detergent gets it out
He wanted his dad to care for him like he cared for Sammy. But he was now used to the feeling of rejection. It seemed to follow him around.
And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over- fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
His dad had sunk into depression when Sammy left he tried to call him but his dad and Sammy were too ignorant for their own good.
I want my money back
I want my money back
He wanted to be loved!
What about love?
It's defective
It's always breaking in half
And then he had met Cassie but it hadn't lasted after he had told her about his job.
What about sex?
It's defective

What about your family?
It's defective
All the batteries are shot

What about your friends?
They're defective
All the parts are out of stock
He had never had any friends moved around too much to make them.
What about hope?
It's defective
It's corroded and decayed
Hope that was what he had clung to yet when did dreams ever come true.
What about faith?
It's defective
It's tattered and it's frayed
He had lost all faith when he saw what he had saw yet people continued to have faith in him.
What about your Gods?
They're defective
They forgot the warranty
If a God existed why had his mum died.
What about your town?
It's defective
It's a dead end street to me
They had never stayed long in a town for long as they had their job to do.
What about your school?
It's defective
It's a pack of useless lies
He had never been to school while Sammy was at school he had skipped lessons only going as far as the school gate.
What about your work?
It's defective
It's a crock and then you die
His job was to protect people but who would protect him.
What about your childhood?
It's defective
It's dead and buried in the past
He hadn't had much of a childhood it was quite unique learning to shoot but then his dad would leave and he'd have to act daddy to Sammy.
What about your future?
It's defective
And you can shove it up your ass!
With his job did he have a future how many near death experiences did he have.
I want my money back
I want my money back
He wanted a new life one where he was loved for who he was.
It's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Every time I turn it on
I burn it up and burn it out
He wanted a family where they loved him for who he was.
It's a never-ending attack
Everything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
How many times had he lied to Sammy that life was great.
And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over- fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
Back, back, back, back!
