Good Samaritan Lyrics

No matter how you cry
I can't make it right
I'm marching on and why
Shit got me yawning
You got your puppy eyes
You got your pitiful sighs
I got one advice
A word of warning

You thought that I could ease your mind
You thought, but this I know
If you want help, I should be last in line
And I'll tell you why it's so

I'm not the answer to your problems (ooh ah ooh ah)
I'm not the one to help you out (ooh ah ooh ah)
I never was the good samaritan (ooh ah ooh ah)
I'm not the one to sort you out

Ah

So take it away
This whole game you play
You gotta help yourself
I got my own problems
So I tried to say
In every kind of way
But you'll probably say
I ain't gonna solve 'em

You thought that I could ease your mind
You thought, but this I know
If you want help, I should be last in line
And I'll tell you why it's so

I'm not the answer to your problems (ooh ah ooh ah)
I'm not the one to help you out (ooh ah ooh ah)
I never was the good samaritan (ooh ah ooh ah)
I'm not the one to sort you out (ooh ah ooh ah)

I'm not a shoulder you can lean on (ooh ah ooh ah)
I'm just a someone who will say (ooh ah ooh ah)
"I never was the good Samaritan" (ooh ah ooh ah)
I turned my back and walked away
