Gimme a Reason
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You take the money with your left hand
And then you spend it with the right
You might as well be setting it alight
You took the motor turned it to a wreck
Bought enough rope to put around your neck
Just gimme a reason to listen to you
Just gimme a reason I'll know what to do
Why should I believe what you're saying is true
It’s like you're talking on a knife edge
But you'll never make it through
Why don't go and buy yourself a clue
You want a free ride to the end zone
You'll be a winner any day
A winner? Yeah, right!
Just gimme a reason to listen to you
Just gimme a reason I'll know what to do
Why should I believe what you're saying is true
Think you're acting like a big shot
Instead you're acting like a clown
Shooting high but you're going down
No matter what happens from now on
I'll never really understand
What the hell were we thinking
Just gimme a reason to listen to you
Just gimme a reason I'll know what to do
Why should I believe what you're saying is true
