And You Say

Whenever I buy a lighter in the store

You take it away

I cannot find the ashtray anymore

Did you take it away?

Smoking is not good for me

It damages my health

If you don't give me nicotine

Well, then I ask somebody else

And you say

What you do

Is just the way that I wanted you to

And you say

What you see

Is not the way that you want me to be

Whenever I pour myself a glass of wine

You take it away

The bottle I bought today I cannot find

Did you take it away?

Drinking is not good for me

It damages my brain

I haven't had a single drop

And it's driving me insane

That you say

What you do

Is just the way that I wanted you to

And you say

What you see

Is not the way that you want me to be

Whenever I get some change from anywhere

You take it away

I'm loving my little bankbook – you don't care

You take it away

Money is not good for me

It damages my soul

You take away my piggy bank

And dig it in a hole

And you say...
