REALISTIC
You say I'll make some money for a reasonable fee,
But son you're going to waste your time explaining it to me.
My partner left in '90 disappeared out of my life,
He bankrupted my business, took my dog and took my wife.
I heard it all before so don't get close enough to spit.
I'm not a cynic. I'm just realistic.
You took me to a restaurant and bought me sweet champagne,
You told me you were sorry and you want to start again.
I know about the redhead you were with on Friday night,
The blonde and the brunette you think you're keeping out of sight.
I heard it all before so don't get close enough to spit.
I'm not a cynic. I'm just realistic.
You helped me wash the car and took the garbage out as well,
You didn't hit your sister or you bribed her not to tell,
You want to go to Disneyland because you've been so good,
You say you'll feed the hamster and do homework like you should.
I heard it all before so don't get close enough to spit.
I'm not a cynic. I'm just realistic.
