Speechwriters Llc - What You Came For lyrics
rate meI was in the news today
Saying things I never say
Taking stands on all the issues of the day
Until they all just walked away
But things have changed since we were kids
Look at all the things we did
We wanted it so bad, I think we underbid
Slippery slope before us and we slid
If this is what you came for we'll play it with a smile
It bores the band to tears but it makes us worth your while
Be careful what you wish for, 'cause it might all come true
As everything descends on you
Woke up westbound on the ten
Tried to sell myself again
The trees grow taller there when everyone's your friend
It's hard to know where to begin
So bite the hand that cuts the checks
And act suprised to what comes next
As you come crawling back to beg for their respect
And put their chains back on your neck
If this is what you came for we'll play it with a smile
It bores the band to tears but it makes us worth your while
Be careful what you wish for, 'cause it might all come true
As everything descends on you
Do you like what you see?
Do you see what you like?
Do you want to believe in the King of the Open Mic?
We tell ourselves that there's eloquence in this
There's plenty of businesses like show business
