Lyrics
Can't Get Away With That
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 had us almost believing we were good enough for no one, no how
You had us take it or leave it, it's the best deal you're gonna get right now son
a little dig here, a little word did you really think that you could control us?
Maybe we didn't make it clear, you can have your opinions but you don't own us
If I ever see your face again it will be far too soon
to say the things I want to say to you.
You took us for this you took us for that
You took us for granted you can't get away with that
If there comes a time when you have to decide whether to trust in someone new
they have to have faith, they have to be true, they have to believe in what you do
If I ever see your face again it will be far too soon
to say the things I want to say to you.
You took us for this, you took us for that
You took us for granted, you can't get away with that
Maybe you're thinking i'm an angry man
but you were building us up so we would knock each other down
and you won't get away with it......no way
If I ever see your face again it will be far too soon
to say the things I want to say to you.
You took us for this, you took us for that
You took us for granted, you can't get away with that
I
