LYRICS: I'm no good at living for myself I need to live for someone else
Another afternoon I don't know how to use I'm staring at the wall I'm at your beck and call
I'm no good at living for myself I need to live for someone else Every preacher needs a God All this batter needs a cod Every actor needs a script I need a keeper for my crypt This pen writes best when firmly gripped This horse may win if roundly whipped
So point me t'wards the clouds and watch me fly Or point me t'wards a pan and watch me fry Or point me t'wards the bed and watch me lie
So point me t'wards the sea and watch me sink So point me t'wards the mirror, watch me wink So point me t'wards the rum and watch me drink
'Cause I don't have a clue What I would like to do I'll think on it all day While doing sweet FA
MVP of any entourage As long as I'm not put in charge I'm a slick automobile But I need someone at the wheel I would follow my own dreams But I don't know quite what they mean I had one the other night where I was killing centipedes
I'm no good at living for myself I need to live for someone else I can't make myself happy, maybe I can make you happy I can't follow my own arrow, think it fell out of the quiver Can I have a stick to throw? Mine's at the bottom of the river
So point me t'wards the kitchen and I'll bake I'll bake you a delicious birthday cake Just tell me what to do
