Gratitude Lyrics

for letting me stay here

thank you for taking me in

thank you

for the beer and the food

thank you

for loaning me bus fare

thank you for showing me around

that was a very kind thing to do

thank you

for the use of the clean towel

thank you for half of your bed

we can sleep here like brother and sister,

you said

but you changed the rules

in an hour or two

and I don't know what you

and your sisters do

but please don't

please stop

this is not my obligation

what does my body have to do

with my gratitude?

look at you

little white lying

for the purpose of justifying

what you're trying to do

I know that you feel my resistance

I know that you heard what I said

otherwise you wouldn't need the excuse

thank you

for letting me stay here

thank you for taking me in

I don't know where else

I would have turned

but I don't come and go

like a pop song

that you can play incessantly

and then foget when it's gone

you can't write me off

and you don't turn me on

so don't change the rules

in an hour or two

I don't know what you and your

sisters do

but please don't

please stop

this is not my obligation

what does my body have to do

with my gratitude?
