No Excuse

Can I take a small, but yet another fall ?

Is it me or is the floor getting a bit lower ?

I wonder, can I lower my standarts at all ?

Should we tell her that she isn't getting any yonger ?

I need to pack my purse with my lucky charms ?

Or my knitted socks just to keep me warm ?

My jewel box is lying on the floor

You need your robe and nothing more!

Well I don't feel safe but I grew another spine

Let me dry your face from this shiny brine.

So no horse shoe, no rabbit foot !

And don't you dare patronize me is that understood ?

Refrain :

I've been there before, it is almost a bore

I won’t play this game, no use, no excuse!

I feel no shame, feel no need to blame

Whatever they’ll choose, I’ll use, no excuse.

Speak up now, my ears are up here

Let's make one thing oh so very clear :

I'll go my way, on yours you will stay

She needs no comment on her walkaway!

I 'm ten feet tall, I'm a cannonball

I feel like Venus in my overalls !

Refrain
