Give The Kid A Break lyrics

Don t know why I m down here
Must be something I said
Or some small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
Don t know why I m down here
Don t reserve to roast or bake
I m fighting off slanderous allegations
Why don t you give the kid a break?
Don t you think maybe we could talk this over?
You re a reasonable man
Could we discuss my grave situation?
I m a miserable man, and I m in the frying pan

Give the kid a break

"Give me one good reason why I should."

Give the kid a break

All right, all right, so I made a few mistakes
But listen, for heaven s sake!

"Watch your language, Kid."

OK, OK, don t get hot

"Don t question my judgement
He only reaped what he sowed
He cast his pearls before swine
And that s good enough for me
I don t want to talk it over
Even tho I m a reasonable man
Sonny, from over here
Looks like you re in no position to bargain
You re a convicted man
You re right in the frying pan"

Give the kid a break

Please give me a break

Give the kid a break

"Nah ah, I don t think so, man"

Come on, you know I got what it takes
Can t you give me a break?

"Sure thing kid, when hell freezes over"

Ok, don t give the kid a break

Hey you guys, I thought you were on my side

Don t give the kid a break

Yeah, well thanks a lot, pals!
Listen boss, maybe we can make a little deal
Isn t there anything I can say?
Or some kind of fine I can pay?
Anything?
Don t know why I m down here
Must be something I said and I m sorry
Or some small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
It might be a small imperfection
It might be an infection or a clear case of misdirection, yeah
It must be a small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
Give the kid a break
