Lyric Positively 4th Street
You gotta lotta nerve to say you are my friend
When I was down you just stood there grinnin
You gotta lotta nerve to say you got a helping hand to lend
You just wanna be on the side that s winnin
You say I let you down, you know it s not like that
If you re so hurt why then don t you show it?
You say you lost your faith, but that s not where it s at
You have no faith to lose, and you know it
I know the reason that you talk behind my back
I used to be among the crowd you re in with
Do you take me for such a fool
To think I would make contact?
The one who tries to hide what he don t know
To begin with
You see me on the street, you always act surprised
You see how I could look, but you don t mean it
When you know as well as me
You d rather see me paralized
Why don t you just come at once out screaming
No, I do not feel that good
I see the heartbreaks you embrace
If I was a master thief perhaps I d rob them
And though you re dissatisfied with your position
And your place
Don t you understand, it s not my problem?
I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you
Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
You d know what a drag it is to see you.
When I was down you just stood there grinnin
You gotta lotta nerve to say you got a helping hand to lend
You just wanna be on the side that s winnin
You say I let you down, you know it s not like that
If you re so hurt why then don t you show it?
You say you lost your faith, but that s not where it s at
You have no faith to lose, and you know it
I know the reason that you talk behind my back
I used to be among the crowd you re in with
Do you take me for such a fool
To think I would make contact?
The one who tries to hide what he don t know
To begin with
You see me on the street, you always act surprised
You see how I could look, but you don t mean it
When you know as well as me
You d rather see me paralized
Why don t you just come at once out screaming
No, I do not feel that good
I see the heartbreaks you embrace
If I was a master thief perhaps I d rob them
And though you re dissatisfied with your position
And your place
Don t you understand, it s not my problem?
I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you
Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
You d know what a drag it is to see you.
