Short Work Songtext
Pinch me won't you pinch me, I think I'm stuck in some bad dream

Where all the things I thought I know, they?re not quite what they seem

?Cause weren?t you the one who pleaded, and begged for me to stay,

Told me you can't live without me, and then you walked away, you made


Short work of a big dream, you made

Brown leaves out of all my summer green, you made

Mincemeat out of my pride, now youre

Leaving and you're even making short work of goodbye



Spare me won't you spare me, can't you spare me that routine

?Cause there ain't nothing in that bucket gonna make this mess come clean

No I never could forget the way you turned so cold

And the silence that you kept, and all those lies that you told when you made


Short work of a big dream, you made

Brown leaves out of all my summer green, you made

Mincemeat out of my pride, now I'm

Leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye



So go ahead, ask me please to take you back, on your knees

You can beg once again, say you just want to be friends,

You can rage, you can cuss, throw a tantrum, make a fuss,

You can cry, you can swear, go ahead, I don't care, cause you made
