Lyrics

It’s not my fault, I’m not to blame
I’m just a lowly player in your game
you make the rules
i just play along
i’m like a pawn to your every whim
can’t do nothing ‘bout the funk you’ve put me in
i’m a puppet
hanging by a string

don’t walk away
don’t set me down
don’t ever shake
my solid ground

when i’m wrong you tell me so
you tell me everything that i need to know
you lose your patience
if i talk too much
then you come home, i hear the door
i feel your shadow as it slips across my floor
i know there’s nothing less
there’s nothing more

don’t walk away
don’t set me down
don’t ever shake
my solid ground

the afternoon sun on my sleepy head
i lay there dosing in your big soft bed
we talk of days gone by or maybe better days ahead
and dare to dream the dreams that might come true
When there’s nothing else to do

It’s not my fault, I’m not to blame
