[Verse 1]
The puzzle box says 1000 pieces.
But I’ve used all of them and the cat still has no eyes.
I should have know ’cause the box was worn and tattered.
The promise I had read, was not what it delivered.
[Chorus]
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It could have been written by a fool, in the dark.
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It’s been read a thousand times, it wasn’t meant for you.
[Verse 2]
The internet ad says you won’t believe this one trick
To lose 100 pounds and all you have to do
is drink this awful stuff and send us all your money.
Man you’d have to be crazy, to fall for their click-bait.
[Chorus]
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It could have been written by a fool, in the dark.
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It’s been read a thousand times, it wasn’t meant for you.
[Verse 3]
There’s a Nigerian Prince with a million dollars.
And a Robo-Caller wants to buy my house.
Used to be just the used car man we had to be aware of.
But now we’re so connected, there’s graffiti everywhere.
[Chorus]
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It could have been written by a fool, in the dark.
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It’s been read a thousand times, it wasn’t meant for you.
The puzzle box says 1000 pieces.
But I’ve used all of them and the cat still has no eyes.
I should have know ’cause the box was worn and tattered.
The promise I had read, was not what it delivered.
[Chorus]
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It could have been written by a fool, in the dark.
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It’s been read a thousand times, it wasn’t meant for you.
[Verse 2]
The internet ad says you won’t believe this one trick
To lose 100 pounds and all you have to do
is drink this awful stuff and send us all your money.
Man you’d have to be crazy, to fall for their click-bait.
[Chorus]
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It could have been written by a fool, in the dark.
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It’s been read a thousand times, it wasn’t meant for you.
[Verse 3]
There’s a Nigerian Prince with a million dollars.

Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It could have been written by a fool, in the dark.
Don’t trust the writing on the wall
It’s been read a thousand times, it wasn’t meant for you.
