Paul Simon - Rewrite Lyrics
I'm workin' on my rewrite, that's rightGonna change the endingThrow away the titleToss it in the trashEvery minute after midnightAll the time I'm spendingIs just for workin'on my rewriteGonna turn it into cashI been workin' at the Car WashI consider it my day job'Cause it's really not a pay jobBut that's where I amEverybody says "The old guyWorkin'at the Car Wash?"Hasn't got a brain cell leftSince Vietnam[Chorus:]But I sayHelp me, help meHelp me, help meThank you!I'd no ideaThat you were thereWhen I said help me, help meHelp me, help meThank youFor listening to my prayerI'll eliminate the pagesWhere the father has a breakdownAnd he has to leave the familyBut he really meant no harmGonna substitute a car chaseAnd a race across the rooftopsWhere the father saves the childrenAnd he holds them in his armsYeah I'm workin'on my rewrite, all rightGonna change my endingThrow away the titleToss it in the trashEvery minute after midnightAll the Time I'm spendingIs just for workin'on my rewrite.Gonna turn it into cash[Chorus:]I saidHelp me, help meHelp me, help meThank you!I'd no ideaThat you were there
