From the recording Never Gonna Work In This Town Again
This track was a mainstay of Dann's live set before being added to the Night Baby repertoire. More horns and dirty guitar effects are happening here!
Lyrics
You write novels in the second person
And can't think of anything worse than being told what to do
You don't like it when I am forthcoming
And there's no bigger drag for me than to get stuck next to you.
You talk love but say you've never been in it
And no matter the subject you know your beliefs to be true
Your leather cuff doesn't make you tough
You just try too hard for someone with nothing to prove
So you say
There's only so much I can take
I can't let this go another day
I'll think it over but I think it's the right way
You own the rights to a new kind of sadness
And if anyone takes up your hobby you tell them you're thru
You live by a code that's unspoken
And someday you'll reap that reward that's so long overdue.
So you say
There's only so much I can take
I can’t let this go another day
I'll think it over but I think it's time I
Had my say
There is no more I can take
I won’t let this go another day
Now think it over ‘cause I think it's the right way
