There's a situation   that you don't know about   There's a little problem   That I can't do without      So don't you try me   this time   Say (?) there are nicer words than this   So don't you try me this time      Don't you know that it's wrong?   Hey you're ballin' up your fist all day long.   Talking bout the weather   Waiting til it's 5   If we're still alive   Here you go to disappear   And I can go and hide   I can go to hide      Alice talked to Porter   and Porter talked to Tom   Word got back to Cathy   She passed the savings on      So don't you try me   This time   Birds of a feather   Oughta talk about some other fella   So don't try me this time      Now I'm down on my knees   I'm scrambling on the ground for my keys   Everybody else is smiling   They got something else   They're keeping to themselves.   (??) something more   Always having something more...      Everyone is smilin'   But they got something else   There's a little story   they're keeping to themselves   So don't you try me   this time   Say you should try it   In your defensive drivin'   Don't try me this time      With just a case, you don't find a reason   to put it in writing   And don't you try me now   You know that it's wrong      Sudden silence on the telephone   I smile, you know I'm not alone   And I say something small   But I should've said I'm down on my knees      There's a situation   that you don't know about   There's a little problem   That I can't do without   So don't you try me   This time   Birds of a feather   Oughta talk about some other fella   Don't try me this time   Birds of a feather   Oughta talk about some other fella   Don't try me this time
