Current song lyrics
When she said,<br />"Don't waste your words, they're just lies,"<br />I cried she was deaf.<br />And she worked on my face until breaking my eyes,<br />Then said, "What else you got left?"<br />It was then that I got up to leave<br />But she said, "Don't forget,<br />Everybody must give something back<br />For something they get."<br /><br />I stood there and hummed,<br />I tapped on her drum and asked her how come.<br />And she buttoned her boot,<br />And straightened her suit,<br />Then she said, "Don't get cute."<br />So I forced my hands in my pockets<br />And felt with my thumbs,<br />And gallantly handed her<br />My very last piece of gum.<br /><br />She threw me outside,<br />I stood in the dirt where ev'ryone walked.<br />And after finding I'd<br />Forgotten my shirt,<br />I went back and knocked.<br />I waited in the hallway, she went to get it,<br />And I tried to make sense<br />Out of that picture of you in your wheelchair<br />That leaned up against . . .<br /><br />Her Jamaican rum<br />And when she did come, I asked her for some.<br />She said, "No, dear."<br />I said, "Your words aren't clear,<br />You'd better spit out your gum."<br />She screamed till her face got so red,<br />Then she fell on the floor,<br />And I covered her up and then<br />Thought I'd go look through her drawer.<br /><br />And when I was through,<br />I filled up my shoe, and brought it to you.<br />And you, you took me in,<br />You loved me then,<br />You never wasted time.<br />And I, I never took much,<br />I never asked for your crutch,<br />Now don't ask for mine.
