You got a lotta nerve to say you are my friend   When I was down you just stood there grinning   You got a lotta nerve to say you got a helping hand to lend   You just want to be on the side that's winning      You say I let you down you know it's not like that   If you're so hurt why then don't you show it   You say you lost your faith but that's not where it's at   You had no faith to lose and you know it      I know the reason that you talk behind my back   I used to be among the crowd you're in with   Do you take me for such a fool to think I'd make contact   With the one who tries to hide what he don't know to begin with      You see me on the street you always act surprised   You say, "How are you?" "Good luck" but you don't mean it   When you know as well as me you'd rather see me paralyzed   Why don't you just come out once and scream it      No, I do not feel that good when I see the heartbreaks you embrace   If I was a master thief perhaps I'd rob them   And now I know you're dissatisfied with your position and your place   Don't you understand it's not my problem      I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes   And just for that one moment I could be you   Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes   You'd know what a drag it is to see you
