Okay I get it
|
It just took me a minute
|
But you said it all at the get-go
|
And I guess I've improved, 'cause my usual move would be to prove it right
|
down on the floor
|
With my heart on my sleeve, I'll get even no doubt
|
That's what I get paid for
|
Start at the beginning, keep grinning and shout
|
That's what I get paid for
|
Getting up dizzy, it's okay to give up
|
|
Why kid yourself, you were gunning for glory
|
All attitude and honesty
|
But when you wind down to zero, there's things you won't face
|
And the buzzards start screaming
|
With your heart on your sleeve, you'll get even no doubt
|
That's what you get paid for
|
Start at the beginning, keep grinning and shout
|
That's what you get paid for
|
Just getting up dizzy, it's okay to give up*
|
That's what you get paid for
|
You're losing your head
|
|
With my heart on my sleeve, I'll get even no doubt
|
That's what I get paid for
|
Start at the beginning, keep grinning and shout
|
That's what I get paid for
|
Getting up dizzy, it's okay to give up*
|
That's what I get paid for
|
I'm losing my head
