When they found you, you were driven and You were playin' for your life You livin' for the chance to be heard
What promised, what they offered Was than you'd ever hoped for To walk away, ya' know that been absurd
And about absurdity, it was madness It was everything in It was too much, too many and too little
It was people in jackets and ties Who thought of you when made love to their wives Somehow, it what you had in mind
Tell 'em takin' it back So might as well get used to the idea takin' it back Those days are over
You got no one to but yourself So put it on nobody else Put it behind you, start over,
There parties and photos And award shows And covers of
There was and platinum And everyone was You were apart at the seems
were jerk offs Too numerous to everybody shared the dream
But it came time To share the They were conveniently to be seen
Tell 'em you're takin' it So they might as get used to the idea takin' it back Those days are over
You got no one to blame but So don't put it on nobody Put it behind you, over, today
Oh, they'll argue what they you Was what you wanted And to be fair, you know that some of it's true
That's why ya' gotta be careful, 'bout wishes Take your time and think 'em Sometimes those wishes might come true
'em you're takin' it back So might as well get used to the idea You're it back Those days are over
'em you've had enough And if don't like it, it's tough takin' it back Those days are over
You're takin' it Tell 'em you're takin' it
