If there's something I don't say
Give me 'til the words come easy and not a minute longer
Now you've got to come to my rescue once in a while
I know you like to phone it in, but can you give a little backbone to it?
It'll go a long way
So don't do it if you don't have to
Everybody goes there sometimes
Oh, let it be a bad dream and wake up in a cold sweat
I know you gotta do it your own way
If you're ever gonna get through it
Have you made your mind up yet?
And if I give you 'til the words come easy
Am I gonna be around to see the day?
I can't tell you how to
You gotta be ready when the time comes running
Even if I'm not coming
So if there's something I don't say
Give me 'til the words come easy and not a minute longer
Now you've got to come to my rescue one of these days
I know you like to phone it in, but can you give a little backbone to it?
It'll go a long way
