Wasted Words

Can you tell me ... tell me, friend ... just exactly where I've been
 Is that so ... much to ask
 I'll pay you back no matter what the task
 You seem really sure 'bout somethin' I don't know
 Take that load off looks like your chest's about to go
 Your wasted words ... already been heard
 Are you really God ... yes or no

 Well, all day ... and half the night
 You're walkin' round lookin' such a fright
 Lawd, is it me ... or is it you
 I'd make a wager and I'd hope to lose
 Time's gone looks like Rome ... is 'bout to fall
 Sure gonna fall
 Next time take the elevator please don't crawl
 Nooo
 Your wasted words ... so absurd
 Are you really Satan ... yes or no
 Tell me now, please
 Whoo-hooo

 Well, I ain't no saint ... and you sure as hell ain't no savior
 Every other Christmas I would practice good behavior
 That was then ... this is now
 Don't ask me to be Mister Clean ...'cause baby, I don't know how
 Ring my phone 'bout ten more times we will see
 Find that broke down line ... and let it be
 Your wasted words ... will never be heard
 Go on home, baby ... and watch it ... on TV
 Weekday ... soap box speciality
 You know what I'm talkin' 'bout now
 By the way this song's for you ... sincerely, me
 Yeahhh
