lyrics

BIG HEAD BLUES
Excuse me, but there's something
that commands my attention
It's clear to see there's a fire
with my name I must put out
There's no need for gratitudes or praise,
it was my pleasure
You must believe, it's coincidence
my fingerprints are on the match

a part time hero with full time lie
my only job is keeping wool over eyes
an endless smile is my one disguise
so if you're losing in the game -

Say my name I got your back - I'll come running
Say my name I got your back - I'll be right there
say my name

Pardon me, but I hear there's
something ticking right behind you
If you can please, step aside
and let a pro do his thing
I'll pretend to forget which wire to pull
from the connection
In the end you'll see,
I'll diffuse much more than the device

An off white knight in armor that's lost it's sheen
Won't play dirty, can't play clean
Can't reach that high stuck somewhere in between
Let me star in your scene

Say my name I got your back - I'll come running
Say my name I got your back - I'll be right there
say my name
