When I look into the mirror lately what stares back at me? A face that I don't recognize and eyes I can't bear to meet Hey there, Mr. Stranger. Is this how you've always dreamed you'd be? A broken, bruised, empty shell of a man that's been branded by the days he's seen Karma is a bastard and it goes around, you see. And I'm a cold hearted son of a bitch so I'll take what's gonna come to me I could head on out to ...California... Or down to ...Tennessee... And just leave my troubles so far behind that they'll never find a way to me Isn't that the joke of my life? Ain't that the irony? Cuz my troubles exist right here in my mind and I know they'll come along with me. Karma is a bastard and it goes around, you see. And I'm a cold hearted son of a bitch so I'll take what's gonna come to me I've got a heart of stone. But it's never gonna weigh me down Karma is a bastard and it goes around, you see. And I'm a cold hearted son of a bitch so I'll take what's gonna come to me
