"Help Me Out"

Everybody wants a piece of me
And everybody wants it free
So they take a scalpel and dissect
The parts they wanna keep

Is every gift just give and take
So you can have and eat your cake
Is all the goodness in your heart
Just selflessness for your own sake

Help me out
Help me out
I never asked for this
You've got to help me out
You help me out
Help me out
I never asked for this
What are you expecting

Has there ever been untainted love
Or is it always unrequited love
Someone pulling harder for the other
A game of tug of war and love

And I don't need another favor now
If it's gonna trail right back to me somehow
My lamentations from expectations
Don't expect me to settle down

Help me out
Help me out
I never asked for this
You've got to help me out
You help me out
Help me out
I never asked for this
What are you expecting now
What are you expecting now

My life under a magnifying glass
It's not fair to treat someone like this

Help me out
Help me out
I never asked for this
You've got to help me out
You help me out
Help me out
I never asked for this
What are you expecting now
