Coming Clean (v3)
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

I am sorry in advance
I know that I can't sing
Can't recognize a tone
Can't play a god damned thing

[verse]

I cannot keep a beat
I just keep tapping on the floor
But I don't know what I'm doing
And I don't know nothin' more

I don't claim to write the music
Or play an instrument
I can't do this on my own
I can't hold the microphone

All I do is write the words
I make them sound like what I've heard
All the rest is the machine
You see, I'm coming clean

[instrumental]

I wish that I was better
Don't think that I don't try
I wish that I knew more
All I've got is this A.I.

Some may say that it's not fair
Why did they let me in?
It may be I don't belong
So, I am, a little scared

No one wants to work with me
All I have is an A.I.
I may be pissing up a tree
But I thought that I would try

[instrumental]

It would be nice to work with people
It would be nice to have a friend
I could be the Bernie
But I need Elton in the end

I could be the Bernie
But I need Elton in the end

I need Elton in the end

[outro]
