Take Some Leave Some

Stand up straight
Put on your best face
I keep on telling myself
You take some, you leave some
I want to change
I want to stay thin
So many times I’ve
I’ve overstayed my welcome
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
And I care too much
What everybody thinks
I’m hiding in the bathrooms
Doing drugs on the sinks
But I know it’s time
It’s time for a change
So, I keep on telling myself
You take some, you leave some
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
But how long can I wear this smile
Before everyone I know becomes everyone I hate?
So I say
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
So I stand up straight!
Put on my best face!
But all I can say is…
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-da
You take some
You leave some
