Ween - If You Could Save Yourself (You’d Save Us All) lyrics
[Ween - If You Could Save Yourself You’d Save Us All lyrics]
On a free ride home from the embassy
I saw the governor and
His lover holding hands
When I got to my place i emptied my suitcase
And opened the windows wide
The wheels fell off, the bottom dropped out
The checks all bounced, I came in your mouth
Your mother came calling but there
Was no one around the trash caught fire when
The leaves turned brown
The vultures were circling when
The circus left town i left you a note but I
Wrote it in disappearing ink
If you could save yourself
You'd save us all
Is that what you called me for
Is that why you're knocking on my door?
The time I've spent working myself to death
Thought that's what you wanted
I thought you needed my help
To make it good again, to make us strong
To make you happy, to push you along
And gain some respect to be thrown a crumb
I was on my knees when you knocked me down
I saw the governor and
His lover holding hands
When I got to my place i emptied my suitcase
And opened the windows wide
The wheels fell off, the bottom dropped out
The checks all bounced, I came in your mouth
Your mother came calling but there
Was no one around the trash caught fire when
The leaves turned brown
The vultures were circling when
The circus left town i left you a note but I
Wrote it in disappearing ink
If you could save yourself
You'd save us all
Is that what you called me for
Is that why you're knocking on my door?
The time I've spent working myself to death
Thought that's what you wanted
I thought you needed my help
To make it good again, to make us strong
To make you happy, to push you along
And gain some respect to be thrown a crumb
I was on my knees when you knocked me down
