But Seriously Folks

The rising price of free advice Is looking back and thinking twice I didn't ask to make this sacrifice It's an egregiousment to me I don't deserve this botheration Do I know, I don't know why You had to tell me everything that you think I only hung around to finish my drink And you know for sure I never hang around here hoping That you'll come over and criticize me Oh, no, baby You know I don't, so please Take it easy on me I'm trying to get along with you And you can see I bruise easily Unafraid to say what I'm afraid of That's as brave as I can be Please Some guys are funny 'cause they're trying to be Others cause they take themselves too seriously I am afraid that you may have mistaken me For someone afraid of how they'll be taken And even more afraid that you are not mistaken Take it easy on me, baby Don't be so hard I came down here to be taken away from how things are Not to walk into you waiting like a rake in the yard To let me know I disappoint you Oh, no, baby I'm beggin' you to please Take it easy on me I'm trying to get along with you And you can see I bruise easily Unafraid to say what I'm afraid of That's as brave as I can be Please
