        ACan 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
        DYou seem really sure 'bout something I don't kAnow,
        Dtake that load off, looks like chest's about to Ago.
        EYour wasted words already been heard, Dare you really God, yes or nAo?
        AWell, all day and half the night you're walkin' round lookin' such a fright.
        Is it me  or is it you? I'd make a wager and I'd hope you lose.
        DTime's gone, looks like Rome is 'bout to fAall,
        Dnext time take the elevator, please don't Acrawl.
        EYour wasted words so absurd, Dare you really Satan, yes or Ano?
        Well, I ain't no saint and you sure as hell ain't no savior,
        every other Christman 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.
        DRing my phone 'bout ten more times, we will sAee,
        Dfind that broke down line and let it Dbe.
        EYour wasted words wiill never be heard, Dgo on home baby and watch it on ATV.
        EWeekday soap-box speciality, Dyou know what I'm talkin' 'bout nAow,
        Eby the way, this song's for you, Dsincerely, Ame.
\_  \_  \_  \_  \_  \_  \_  \_
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.
