Something's Got To Give
"Something's Got to Give"
B. Jacobs
Everyday, something else goes wrong
I fear and wonder how can I go on
I live in a world of disappointment
Nothing ever seems to go away
Just another habit I got to break
Guess it's time for the pity to join in
Something's got to give
Before I give up, before I give in
Sick of crying and all of the pain
That won't go away, another headache
When is it my time to win?
Something's got to give.
I give everyone my advice
It's time I realized
That it's time to listen to myself
Work and work, and barely see a dime
When will it be time
To check out of this hell?
I'm praying-I'm begging
I can't take it anymore.
I'm waiting-anticipating
To give my little...and for once get back more.
