Time to pay the rent baby, gotta try and work harder.
Really goin' nowhere fast, you're not goin' much farther.
Gotta take a break baby, try and make my load lighter.
I'm missin' somethin' that I need, never been much of a fighter.
Well maybe I made, a few mistakes.
But baby you know, they were mine to make.
CHORUS
I know the game, but I don't want to play it.
I know the word, but I don't want to say it.
I've got the bill, but I don't want to pay it.
I know the game, but I ain't gonna play it this time.
You watch me like a hawk, baby, I know somethin's gotta give.
Listen to the way you talk, baby, this ain't no way to live.
Everything I don't have, well it all belongs to you.
I'm doin the best that I can, baby what you want me to do.
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
The old ways are dead & gone,
And the door is open wide.
Anything can happen now. You can see me,
Standin' on a thin line.
CHORUS
