And I tell this truth to you,

Not out of spite or anger

But simply because it's true.

Giving back all of what you owe,

The fewer words you have to waste on this,

The sooner you can go.

Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest.

But I can't say I sympathize

With what your fate is going to be,
G C/G G
Yes, for telling all those lies.

Now you must provide some answers

For what you sold has not been received,

And the sooner you come up with them,
G C/G G
The sooner you can leave.
Em G

Nothing is better, nothing is best,

Take heed of this and get plenty rest.

When you made ev'rybody pay.

No, nothing was delivered,

Then that's how long that you'll remain.

Nothing is better, nothing is best,
G D/F# C/E G C D/A G
Take heed of this and get plenty rest.
