Lyrics
I've been working on a rewrite, that's right, gonna change the ending Going to throw away my title and toss it in the trash Every minute after midnight, all the time I'm spending Is just for working on the rewrite, that's right, I'm going to turn it into cash I been working at the car wash, I consider it my day job 'Cause it's really not a pay job, but that's where I am Everybody says "The old guy working at the car wash Hasn't got a brain cell left since Vietnam" But I say "help me, help me, help me, help me, thank you" I'd no idea that you were there When I said "help me, help me, help me, help me, whoa, thank you For listening to my prayer" I've been working on a rewrite, that's right, gonna change the ending Going to throw away my title and toss it in the trash Every minute after midnight, all the time I'm spending Is just for working on the rewrite, that's right, I'm going to turn it into cash I'll eliminate the pages where the father has a breakdown And he has to leave the family, but he really meant no harm I'm gonna substitute a car chase and a race across the rooftops Where the father saves the children and he holds them in his arms And I say "help me, help me, help me, help me, thank you" I'd no idea that you were there When I said "help me, help me, help me, help me, whoa, thank you For listening to my prayer"
