Tters. why jimmy decided to give him a song with a tango rhythm and a klezmer trill I don't know, but it works.I'm just an old truth teller
I'm your candid friend
I'm not some daydream seller
I do not pretend

And screwing my rivals
That's labeled me crossed and uncouth
But I can't help it I just tell the truth
He can't help it, he just tells the truthI'm just an old truth teller
Brutally direct
I see it eye for eye
I'm rarely incorrect
Why call me a sharp trader
A corporate raider
I'm a role model for today's youth
It's so simple, I just tell the truth
He can't help it, he just tells the truthBridge:Why was I born to be right all the time
In deal after deal after deal
Foiling those sharks that are circling my penthouse
Hoping to make a mealNo good deed goes unpunished

Ohh he can't help it, he just sells it
He can't help, he just tells it
I can't help, I just tell the truth
