If you're gonna do it, do it right   Don't leave it overnight   If you're gonna help me help me now   Another ten minutes will be too late      Like a crying child I need comfort now   Don't pick me up when the tears are dry on my face   I need someone to help me but not you, you're not ready   Seems you have trouble helping yourself      It takes time to notice   But you don't seem to know time keeps moving   What you're doing is wasting my time   You would help me more   Help me more if you helped yourself      Help yourself, help yourself      You wanna get yourself together   Don't you wanna put yourself to right   I said, "Get yourself together   Don't you wanna put yourself to right"      I said, "No, don't apologize you've done your best"   Seems it still ain't right leave me alone   No more to be said   To get it right, you got to do it yourself      I'm going out to help myself   Help myself, help myself   I'm going out to help myself   Help myself, help myself      If you're gonna say it, say it now   Don't leave it overnight   If you're gonna hold me, hold me tight   I don't wanna leave not if it seems all right   Like a crying child I need comfort now   Don't pick me up when the tears are dry on my face      You've got to govern the situation   Nut not you, you're no   And anyway, hold up, hold up, hold up   You're trying to sort out your mind      You've got to get it together   You've got to get it together   It would help me more   Help more if you helped yourself
