Billy Joel - You Picked a Real Bad Time lyrics

rate me

Don'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

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 spoil my concentration

You picked a real bad time

To pass along bad news

Tell me why you tried

To give me aggravation

You picked a real bad time

‘Cause this man's got the blues

Don't you get me wrong

You're not alone

I'd like to help ya

But I got problems of my own

It's a bitter phase

I'm goin' through

And I can run from strangers darlin'

But I just can't hide from you

You picked a real bad time

To spoil my concentration

You picked a real bad time

To pass along bad news

Tell me why you tried

To give me aggravation

You picked a real bad time

And I ain't got time to lose

Ain't it the truth

When they say

That the only thing worth dyin' for

Is our freedom

Ain't it the rule

That someday

We will all be lying on our backs

Free at last from income tax

Don't you get me wrong

The mood won't last

And I'll be myself again

Soon as this pain has passed

I'm standin' 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 spoil my concentration

You picked a real bad time

To pass along bad news

You caused a real hard line

You invade my isolation

You picked a real bad time

And 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 rule

That someday

Even love will not provide for man

Who wastes a life insurance claim

You picked a real bad time

To spoil my concentration

You picked a real bad time

To pass along bad news

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me why you tried

To give me aggravation

You picked a real bad time

‘Cause this man's got the blues

You picked a real bad time
