Wasted Words lyrics

Can you tell me, tell me friend, just exactly where I've been?
Is that so much to ask? I'll pay you back no matter what the task

You seem really sure 'bout something I don't know
Take that load off, looks like your chest's about to go

Your wasted words already been heard
Are you really God, yes or no?

Well, all day and half the night you're walkin' round lookin' such a fright
Oh, is it me or is it you? I'd make a wager and I'd hope "to" lose

Time's gone, looks like Rome is 'bout to fall, sure gonna fall
Next time take the elevator, please don't crawl

Your wasted words, so absurd
Are you really Satan, yes or no? Tell me [Incomprehensible]

Well, I ain't no saint and you sure as hell ain't no savior
Every other Christmas I would practice good behavior

That was then, this is now, don't ask me to be mister clean
'Cause baby, I don't know how

Ring my phone 'bout ten more times, we will see
Find that broke down line and let it be

Your wasted words will never be heard
Go on home baby and watch it on T.V

Weekday soap-box specialty, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout now
By the way, this song's for you, sincerely, me
