Give the Kid a Break

歌詞

Don't know why I'm down here Must be something I said Or some small imperfection In my soul or in my head Don't know why I'm down here Don't reserve to roast or bake I'm fighting off slanderous allegations Why don't you give the kid a break? You don't think maybe we could talk this over You're a reasonable man Could we discuss my grave situation I'm a miserable man And I'm in the frying pan Give the kid a break Give me one good reason why I should All right, all right, so I made a few mistakes But for heaven's sake Watch your language, Kid. OK, OK, don't get hot Don't question my judgement He only reaped what he sowed He cast his pearls before swine And that's good enough for me I don't want to talk it over Even tho' I'm a reasonable man Sonny, from over here Looks like you're in no position to bargain You're a convicted man You're right in the frying pan Give the kid a break Please give me a break Give the kid a break Nah nah, I don't think so, man Come on, you know I got what it takes Can't you give me a break? Sure thing kid, when hell freezes over Ok, don't give the kid a break Hey you guys, I thought you were on my side No they don't Give the kid a break Yeah, well thanks a lot, pals Listen boss, maybe we can make a little deal Isn't there anything I can say Or some kind of fine I can pay Something Don't know why I'm down here Must be something I said (I'm sorry) Or some small imperfection In my soul or in my head It might be some infection It might be a small imperfection or a clear case of misdirection It must be a small imperfection In my soul or in my head Give the kid a break
