[Verse 1]
I swear I didn't know who you were
When I crossed you
I swear I left it all behind
I swear I didn't hold it all against you
But I just couldn't take it off my mind
Yes, I'm aware of you
Oh yes, taking care of you
I know now, no one cares for you
Instead, they're all just scared of you
Now say, is this okay with you?
We flinch at everything you do
Tore at me when I said we're through
Small cuts from all the cash you threw

[Chorus]
Watch for the things you say
There's no way I'm gonna stay
Don't drop down and steal away
I'm living
With the help you gave
Oh that's right, that was nothing
I'm in rags stealing money
And you think it's really funny

[Verse 2]
And yet I stay
Half-awake under vicious clouds
And think
How I could have used you and grown-up
By now
You think you're wise
With advice you've never lived
You're still a child
Who plays with real estate and women
Please, it was obvious
Your flaw, it was dangerous
And also obnoxious
You're greedy and lecherous
Don't come to me whining
I've heard this all, surprise me
For once just stop relying
On paper start surviving
[Chorus]
Watch for the things you say
There's no way I'm gonna stay
Don't drop down and steal away
I'm living
With the help you gave
Oh that's right, that was nothing
I'm in rags stealing money
And you think it's really funny
