|
Not one to be alarmist |
|
panic's not really my style. |
|
Dealing with my nervousness |
|
and forcing a smile... see? |
|
I'm good at coping |
|
Cool, poised, self-controlled |
|
No that's OK I'll be alright |
|
These are coffee shakes, that's all |
|
Quit Quit I can't Quit |
|
Quit Quit I can't Quit |
|
Eager for a challenge |
|
Sure I wasn't over my head |
|
Had the very best intentions |
|
The tougher, the better, I said |
|
I know you're very busy, |
|
I can see you're working very hard, |
|
but I'm scared |
|
Don't want to interrupt you |
|
But I've got to tell somebody |
|
that there's big trouble here |
|
Run for cover and say your prayers! |
|
Everything was researched |
|
followed the best advice |
|
Spent days on end in reference |
|
confirmed all sources twice |
|
Realistic expectations |
|
practical methods and tests |
|
Confident in the outcome |
|
final result this crisis |
|
Quit Quit I can't Quit |
|
Quit Quit I can't Quit |
|
Every angle, every option |
|
checked my facts again and again |
|
Tore it apart a thousand times |
|
and stood it on its head |
|
Went over it and over it |
|
considered different points of view |
|
Put things in perspective |
|
but I can't find the error |
|
no ideas, no clues |
|
Well, what the Hell am I supposed to do? |
|
I've really got a problem here |
|
...Quit... no... no problem |
|
I'd rather not admit it |
|
this is hard for me to say |
|
I'm proud and independent |
|
and I don't like to make mistakes |
|
But all I need is a different slant |
|
and objective overview |
|
And I couldn't keep from thinkin' |
|
just what it was you'd do |
|
Quit Quit I can't Quit |
|
Quit Quit I can't Quit |
|
You'd pull this all together |
|
as if it were routine |
|
Dazzle me with logic |
|
brilliant line of reasoning |
|
You'd crack through solutions |
|
your genius on demand |
|
You could move a little faster |
|
hurry up and get us out of this jam |
|
Cause I've given up, I Quit, I can't |
