You gotta give You gotta give me a better reason To listen to you It's gonna take It's gonna take more than shouting at me To make me concede You should have left it alone Too late open mouth Stupid words Like "never again" and "only one more time" Being lame Doing things you know better than that Is it too much to ask We're older, not wiser, contrite and indifferent We're learning, just slower And someday we'll be the ones to point and to blame
