the contrarian

• hayatına en az bir kere bu şarkıda anlatılan gibi bir insan girmemiş şanslı insanların beğenmediği a perfect circle şarkısı.
• bir eat the elephant şaheseri.
  
  hello, he lied
  like velvet this magician's sleight of tongue and hand
  hello, he lied
  beware, belie his smile
  as warm and calculated as heroin
  beware the contrarian
  
  within everyone
  a scale, a voice
  everyone but him
  core is black as pitch
  soul is out of tune
  advocate of none
  beware, belie his smile
  will cost you everything
  cloak and masquerades
  contempt for everyone
  hello, hello, he lied
  
  hello, he lied
  like velvet this magician's sleight of tongue and hand
  hello, he lied
  beware, belie his smile
  as warm and calculated as heroin
  beware the contrarian
• "hello, he lied"
  
  her şeyiyle müthiş bir a perfect circle şarkısı. açıkça politika eleştirisi vardır. klibindeki kuklacı donald trump'a benzetilir. muhtemelen 'like velvet, this magician's sleight of tongue and hand' sözleri de klibin bu kuklacı kısmına karşılık gelir.
