Lyrics
"Critics"
Music/Lyrics by John Kelly Wilson
Verse
Tell me somethin baby
Do you ever think late at night
What if we'd listened to those sayin
What we had just wasn't right
Opposites don't attract they'd say
Square pegs don't fit round holes
Paid no attention to the critics
Cause what the hell do they all know?
Chorus
Got it wrong
Got it wrong
Busy tellin others what to do
Always playin with house money
So there's nothing ever to lose
Judging is so easy
Arm chair quarterbacks havin their say
Why consider their opinions
When they've never been in the game
Verse
From whispers in dark corners
To blunt comments that they shared
Never gave them the time of day
We just never cared
What we have we never hid
Has been there for the world to see
The only thing that matters then and now
Is knowin how you feel about me
Chorus
Got it wrong
Got it wrong
Busy tellin others what to do
Always playin with house money
So there's nothing ever to lose
Judging is so easy
Arm chair quarterbacks havin their say
Why consider their opinions
When they've never been in the game
Bridge
Maybe someday they'll find themselves
In the place we used to be
Hearing people trying to run their lives
And then they'll finally see
They'll finally see
Guitar Break
Chorus
Got it wrong
Got it wrong
Busy tellin others what to do
Always playin with house money
So there's nothing ever to lose
Judging is so easy
Arm chair quarterbacks havin their say
Why consider their opinions
When they've never been in the game
Why consider their opinions
When they've never been in the game
Why consider their opinions
When they've never been in the game
