Finally I've kinda had it, you're no saint! And what's the hurry? I get that it's all about you. Do what you've got to, but see if you can inject some kindness.
lyrics
WHAT A SAINT YOU ARE
Good afternoon to you all
I’ve been waiting for this opportunity
And there’s no better time and no better place
Your temptations will wait til tomorrow
I’ll try to make this brief
I know you’re pressed for time
You’re out on a date
Got a short lunch break
The bills gotta be paid
You gotta have your first baby
Slow down. What the hell’s the hurry?
Have I got your attention?
Can you stand a critique?
Well aren’t you tired of hearing yourself tell all those lies about
What a saint you are
“Now wait a minute.” What a saint you are!
See how long your patience can last
Disregard this request if you take me in jest
What we need for our pie is a sprinkle of truth
A teaspoon of kindness and a lot less surprises
Isn’t it true you were out late the other night?
Spent too much time talkin, but that’s alright
You gotta make an impression to get to the top
Now keep tellin those fairy tales
Your answer is pride
But you don’t hear the question sometimes
May you be happy, I give you my blessing
Just remember, remember, remember misfortune begins in the mind
Oh it begins in the mind
See how long your patience can last
Disregard this request if you take me in jest
What we need for our pie is a sprinkle of truth
A teaspoon of kindness and a lot less surprises
