When they found you, you were and hungry You playin' for your life then You were livin' for the chance to be
What they promised, 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 they made love to their wives Somehow, it wasn't you had in mind
Tell 'em you're it back So they might as get used to the idea takin' it back Those cooperating days are
You got no one to blame but So put it on nobody else Put it behind you, start over,
There were parties and And televised shows And of magazines
was gold and platinum And was smiling You coming apart at the seems
were jerk offs Too numerous to When shared the dream
But when it came To the nightmare They were conveniently to be seen
Tell 'em you're takin' it So might as well get used to the idea You're takin' it Those cooperating are over
You got no one to blame but So don't put it on else Put it behind you, over, today
Oh, argue what they gave you Was exactly you wanted And just to be fair, you know that of it's true
That's why ya' gotta be careful, your wishes Take time and think 'em over Sometimes those wishes just might come
Tell 'em you're takin' it So they as well get used to the idea takin' it back Those days are over
Tell 'em had enough And if they don't like it, it's takin' it back Those days are over
You're takin' it Tell 'em you're it back
