Artist: Billy Joel Album: My Lives (2007) Title: You Picked A Real Bad Time
Lyrics You Picked A Real Bad TimeDon't get me wrong, I ain't the kind To turn away from you when something's on your mind. But you have to know, You just have to see, I'm having my troubles, babe, and they're all too much for me. You picked a real bad time to blow my concentration You picked a real bad time to pass along the bad news Tell me, why you tryin' to give me aggravation You picked a real bad time, cause this man's got the blues Don't get me wrong, You're not alone And I'd like to help you, but I've got problems of my own It's a bitter phase I'm going through And I can run from strangers, darlin', but I just can't hide from you. You picked a real bad time to blow my concentration You picked a real bad time to pass along the bad news You caused a real hard line to invade my isolation You picked a real bad time, cause this man's got the blues Ain't it the truth when they say That the only thing worth dying for is your freedom
Ain't it the proof that someday We will all be lying on our backs Free at last from income tax Don't get me wrong The mood won't last And I'll be myself again, soon as this pain has passed And I'm standing here, Don't ask me how, I'll make it up to you, someday but not right now You picked a real bad time to blow my concentration You picked a real bad time to pass along the bad news Tell me why you tryin' to give me aggravation You picked a real bad time, cause this man's got the blues Ain't it the truth when they say All you need is love but all you'll want is forgiveness Ain't it the proof that someday Even love will not provide for man The way that life insurance can You picked a real bad time to blow my concentration You picked a real bad time to pass along the bad news Tell me, tell me, tell me why you tryin' to give me aggravation You picked a real bad time, cause this man's got the blues. |
