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
 Something 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
 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, it's gonna fall
 Next time take the elevator
 Please don't crawl
 Your wasted words, so absurd
 Are you really Satan, yes or no?
 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
