Todd Snider - The Resignation vs. The Comeback Special Lyrics

I AM STEPPING DOWN FROM MY POSITION
I BELIEVE MY TALENTS WOULD BE BETTER SERVED
IN A MORE PRODUCTIVE SITUATION
I CANNOT SUCCEED THE WAY I NEED TO
UNDER THE GLARE OF ALL THESE SUSPICIONS
AND I WILL NOT STAND HERE AND LISTEN
TO ANY MORE OF THESE WILD ACCUSATIONS

I'M STEPPING DOWN FROM MY POSITION
BECAUSE I BELIEVE I WOULD BE LEAVING MYSELF
WIDE OPEN TO EVEN FURTHER DEFAMATION
COMPLICATIONS MISDIRECTIONS
OBSTRUCTION'S AND CONFRONTATIONS
AND WHILE I WILL FULFILL MY OBLIGATION
TO ASSIST IN THE TRANSITION
I'M STEPPING DOWN
WAIT
