Bad Advice

She said, tell me what it's all about

I said why, why, why?

It's just something you could do without

You better try, try try

She said, I can't reach you on the telephone

I can't call you when you're not at home

You keep saying that you're all alone

That's a lie, lie, lie

Bad advice had me down and undone

Got to try again to believe in myself

Look at me, I'm alone in the end

Can you see me falling, falling down

I said, mama can you get it straight?

She said why, why, why?

I wanna tell you that it just can't wait, so let's try, try, try

She said, I don't know where you might have gone

I don't care 'cause you've done me wrong

You been doin' it far too long

So goodbye, bye, bye

She said tell me what it's all about

I said, why, why, why?

It's just something you can do without

You better try, try, try

I can't reach you on the telephone

I can't call you when you're not at home

You keep saying that you're all alone

That's a lie, lie, lie
