You come around here
Trying to make your demand.
You've got a need, darling,
I've seen it grow and expand.
Yeah, you want to reveal my life
With your own two hands.
Well, tell me now
What are you trying to do?
Those holes in your life
Show what you require.
You're needin' new eyes,
Oh Lord, honey take any wire?
Yeah you've gotta save us all
Before the next big fire.
Tell me now
What are you trying to do?
Walked in my life,
Child, and I don't even know your name.
You put others around behind ya
As if they were lame.
You insist a simple feeling
Will be all the same.
Well, tell me now
What are you trying to do?
Now I look like I'm suffering,
N-n-n-n-n-n-now I'm doing fine.
One look at yourself baby,
Child, I got you alive.
Yeah, you're gonna take care of yours,
I'll take care of mine.
What are you trying to do?
Hey!
