Pure Abuse

Music & Lyrics: Rob Lowe and Friends

Waking up before the sun I pour myself a cup
All these things that are happening are not my fault
Just bad luck
Well I know what I'm doing so don't you tell me how
And I know I'm not fooling anyone but myself
Oh well well

If actions speak louder than words
Then how come you never heard
We're all so weak, we're on our backs
Or maybe that's what I've heard
You see I've been through this
I've been through that
Baby I've seen it all
I'm the shit and that's a fact
I'm bullet proof and ten feet tall

I've got so much to say
But things just keep getting in the way
I've got so much to do
I don't think I'll ever get through
I've got more time and brains
Got more money than you'd ever make
I've got so much to lose
I don't think I'll ever get through with you

Well, remember me, remember my face
And then you can say you knew
A real cool cat who knew his place
His place in the world according to you
(You and your cruel cruel rule)

Time is money and money is time
I've got neither but I don't mind
Some could say it's just bad luck
To them I say I don't give a ---

I've got everything on my plate
Filled with so much promise it just might break
All these things that I've done
So I guess that's why

I've got so much to say
But things just keep getting in the way
I've got so much to do
I don't think I'll ever get through
I've got more time and brains
Got more money than you'd ever make
I've got so much to lose
I don't think I'll ever get through with you
Ah you leave me black and blue, yes you do
Living in the world according to you
Is pure abuse, it's pure abuse, pure abuse
