Andy don't speak I hardly think   You could live with what you'd say   And you're not the kind that likes justice blind   When it's facing back your way      Andy you're banging on the keys   But you can't flesh out a tune   You can lower your sights and read your rights   But you can't get good in an afternoon      Andy you're known for saying you don't   Speak Merit-Systemese   But to make it on friends too much depends   How eager you are to please      Andy you don't know the street   If you think that's how to live   Who's going to have cried when you've told your side?   I, I thought you were just being negative      Andy, it's such a lonely fight   Don't make it any harder than it might be   Andy, keeping the injuries slight      Your nights alone must sink like stone   Without a star to guide   You're not the kind that in ten years' time   Will have won more to your side      Andy your bratty kid abrasion's   The charm that gets you by   You can lay the blame and place the names   But you, you can't play ignorant a second time      Andy, it's such a lonely fight   Don't make it any harder than it might be   Andy, keeping the injuries slight      Andy, oh, it's such a lonely fight   Don't make it any harder than it might be   Andy, keeping the injuries slight   Keeping the injuries slight   Keeping the injuries slight   Keeping the injuries slight
