A Lesson Songtext
von Cartalk

I entertain the idea
Caught up like a movie trailer
While you swirl your whiskey several times
Make yourself feel like the conversation
Is going somewhere
And you′re doing me a favor
You're a good person
Nevertheless a lesson


I take a pour to shut my mouth
I′ve been racing like a thoroughbred
I don't care for drinking anyhow
It makes me nervous to lose all self-control
When I've worked hard to gain it
I see you′re doing me a favor
But I′m losing in the process
Nevertheless a lesson

Handwriting on the receipt
Only time I ever saw it
Yeah, what about a card to me?
Thought in vain, I'm feeling sorry
I′m feeling sorry
I'm feeling sorry

Your generosity didn′t go unnoticed
I just wish you were more than a lesson
