Reisa L. Gerber – I Can See lyrics

Album: Nickel and Dimes

I saw you on the corner,
I saw you on the corner
You were crossing on a green,
You were crossing on a green,
You were out there getting your coffee,
You were out there getting your coffee,
You didn't know that I could see,
You didn't know that I could see.
You gave the cashier fortyfive cents-
You gave the cashier fortyfive cents-
You stole a nickel from the petty cash jar,
You stole a nickel from the petty cash jar!
You were gypping the people at
You were gypping the people at the
the Seven Eleven,
Seven-Eleven,
Your mom gave you twenty bucks
Your mom gave you twenty bucks
The day before.
The day before!

Chorus:
Chorus:
I want to drink you up and eat you up,
I wanna drink you up and eat you up,
And have you in for tea-
And have you in for tea,
I wanna see your life, Reisa Gerber,
I wanna see your life, Reisa Gerber
I can see.
I can see

I saw you in a coffeee shop
I saw you in the coffee chop,
With your mother having lunch-,
With your mother having lunch
You were having a "blow your stack"
You were having a "Blow your Stack"
People edit to "shut up"!
People (edit) to shut up!
Had to blow your smoke down
You had to blow your smoke
the chimney stack,
Down the chimney stack!
'Cause the people will live on,
'Cause the people will live on-
You were feeling like the scarecrow,
You were feeling like that "scarecrow"
It was raining at the crack of dawn.
It was raining at the crack of dawn.

Chorus:

We said "Hey, mama, we are the people,
And I hope your boss
Don't give you the axe!"
Some old guy said,
"Well, what do you expect?
You play people like a "ball and jax!"
You can hold your lovin' head up,
For just so long,
Then you'll topple like a sack of cement!
You can argue over it in a lover's tussle,
But you beg your life she'll pass it again!"

Chorus:
I'd like to submit this to Lyred.com...
It's my wooden nickel!
