Gimme A Break Lyrics - Oingo Boingo

You were the one who could never decide 

Your always complaining the company's too restraining 

You think your sweeter than the rest 

But deep inside your scared to death 

You've got your finger in the pie 

The time has come to pick a side... 

[sax] 

First you say one thing then you change your mind 

You think it's great you say its hot 

You turn around and then it's not 

On Saturday night you wear punk rags 

But you drive a white porsche with custom tags 

You'd like to chance it but you just don't know 

Cause your getten' blind from too much snow 

I hate you but I need the deal 

Let's discuss it over a big hot meal 

Gimme a break...gimme a break...etc.etc. 

[sax] 

Don't you think we're tough enough? (think twice) 

Think that you can hold us back? (no way) 

Don't you know we got the stuff? (sure thing) 

Now were on the warpath 

Sorry... it's not too late... gimme a break 

[sax solo] 

Don't you know I'm tired of waiten'? (so tired) 

And I'm tired of being nice (so nice) 

Can't ya look me in the eyes? 

Don't ya know I'm coming out?... 

Sorry...It's not too late... gimme a break 

You got the job now so you call the shots 

You got the access to the bread 

You said by now that I'll be dead 

But let me tell you something friend 

Your days are numbered to the end 

You see that young cat down the hall 

He's waiten' for you to trip and fall 

You'll beg for your job down on your knees 

You'll kiss the ground and ask him please to 

Give you a break 

Give you a break 

Give you a break...
