I could write the book of you   And illustrate the pages, you shouldn't read it   Oh, I'm the one that you put down   It was written in a hurry, slipped through your fingers      I do everything I should   I still got to learn how to be good   You got two strong arms, I see   Can't you bring ?em around, wrap ?em around me?      I lay my storms down at your feet   Maybe you'll build a shelter, maybe do my hard work for me   Oh, I kick and scream, but the job is mine   So I?ll stay by the ocean, you got your own hills to climb      Oh, I do everything I should   I still got to learn, how to be good   And I?ve got two strong arms, you see   I got to bring ?em around, wrap ?em around me      And I know that I am full of holes   Still they let me, see on through to the other side   And the Southern Cross has got you in her sights      I?ll do everything I should   But I still got to learn how to be good   You?ve got two strong arms, you see   Got to bring ?em around, got to wrap ?em around me      You got to wrap ?em around   Got to wrap ?em around me   Yeah, bring ?em around   Yeah, wrap ?em around me      I?ll do everything I should   I still got to learn how to be good   How to be good
