Come on, come on
I'm pulling for you
Do as I say, not as I do
The last thing you need is another disaster
& there’s only so much I can do

Plain as day
It’s safe to say
There’s something going on
Beneath the surface
(Plain as day)

And I'm feeling nervous
I'm beside myself
Beside you
Am I
Just here to scratch the itches you can’t reach?

Am I
Just here to hold your hand while the leeches leech?
I could be a crutch
I could be exactly what you need
Another day of not enough
Stuck in a psychoanalytical illusion

& it’s taking its toll
As I say, not as I do
I'm only looking out for you
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
Plain as day

It’s safe to say
There’s something going on
Beneath the surface
(Plain as day)
And I'm feeling nervous
I'm beside myself

Beside you
Beside you
How could I do more?
