pass on by

if what you're lookin' for is
someone to tell you how it ain't

pass on by

if what you think you need is
some gentle words of comfort

pass on by

i've been sitting on a heavy load
of just exactly how it is
and it seems to me it's gotten
to be time to let it rip

pass on by

you and i and most folks
can see the situation clear
if you got the inclination
and you got the dime
there's at least a nickel's worth
of just about anything you want
so you can occupy your time

pass on by

if it ain't down and dirty
and you don't really care to listen
it's so simple that it's easy

pass on by
