You've got a nerve to be asking a favor

You've got a nerve to be calling my number

I know we've been through this before

Can't you hear me, I'm calling out your name?

Can't you see me, I'm pounding on your door?

You've got a nerve to be asking a favor

You've got a nerve to be calling my number

Can't you hear me, I'm bleeding on the wall?

Can't you see me, I'm pounding on your door?

Can't you hear me when I'm calling out your name?

When I used to go out, I would know everyone that I saw

Now I go out alone if I go out at all

When I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw

Now I go out alone if I go out at all

When I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw

Now I go out alone if I go out at all

You've got a nerve to be asking a favor

You've got a nerve to be calling my number

I'm sure we've been through this before

Can't you hear me, I'm beating on your wall?

Cant you see me, I'm pounding on your door?
