you were a man that had it all,
now you've thrown it all away.
you let a little of the inside out,
something we weren't ready to see.
pick it up and don't drop it.
hurry up and don't let us down,
'cause if you can bait it, we will bite it.
or at least for now,
you saved a dime, spent a dollar.
but you'll pay for it all eventually.
collected interest on your interest,
in taking it personally.
you took a little too much of other people's advice but you claimed it was free.
eventually you let a little of the inside out, something we weren't ready to see.
put your hands in your pockets
hang your head and leave this town
'cause you've given the reason, your bait's out of season
mr. green, don't turn your back around
you sailed away on a different ship,
you sailed away..
you taught yourself to run,
you never learned to hide.
now if you slip,
you won't be hard to find
