Give The Kid A Break

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?

Well, I have a

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

Okay, okay, don't get hot

Don't question my judgment

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 though 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

Yeah, please give me a break

Give the kid a break

Nah, nah, 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

Okay, 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, I'm sorry

Or some small imperfection

In my soul or in my head

It might be some infection

It might be a small imperfection

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
