Don't give me no lip, don't give me no jive
Don't wanna get hit well, baby, don't shake the hive
All the lies and the wasted time, I let you justify
Got me sick of your trip, baby, you better recognize
How long, how long you gonna make me wait?
How much, how much are we willing to break? Are we willing to break?
Don't you give me the floor and then leave the room
I know that I'm speaking for myself but I'm talking to you
You say there's always tomorrow
To beg, steal or borrow
Well, that's easy to say when you got today
Hey neighbor, I gave you all that sugar
And you never let me try that American pie
Guess there's always a winner and there's a loser
And with the way that you put me aside
Well, honey, who am I?
How long, how long are we gonna wait?
How much, how much are we willing to break? (Are we willing to break?)
You say there's always tomorrow
To beg, steal or borrow
Well, that's easy to say when you got today
You got today
Today
Today
How long, how long you gonna make me wait?
How much, how much are we willing to break? (Are we willing to break?)
You say I'm lucky if I'm able to sit at your table
But you keep pickin' up my plate
Day after day, yeah
(There's always tomorrow
To beg, steal or borrow)
Well, that's easy to say when you got today
You got today
