Please give me ink (ink)
Ink, that's what you're trying to keep from me
Ink (ink, ink)
Print my name once, let me have a tee
Let's go back, let's go back, let's go way on way back when
I used to be in first place; I haven't had a hit since Week 110
(such a slump)
I ain't no Chuck Smith, my name's not Hart and not Witte
But it don't take no ombudsman to see what you're doing to me
Please give me ink (ink)
Ink, that's what you're trying to keep from me
Yeah, ink (ink, ink)
Use just one Ear, let me have a tee
Oh read 'em (read 'em), read 'em (read 'em), oh, read 'em, yeah read 'em
Now, read 'em (read 'em), read 'em (read 'em), read 'em, ooh read 'em
There ain't contests you could set I can't win but dammit I don't (I don't)
I was gonna quit but I'm not; will you start giving me what you won't
And that is ink (ink)
Ink, that's what you're trying to keep from me
Yeah, ink (ink, ink)
I'll take And Last, let me have a tee
Losers having brunch every month, cracking wise and being boors
Tryin' to make other people wet their pants, well I just can't make you wet yours
Please give me ink (ink)
Ink, that's what you're trying to keep from me whooo-oooo
Yeah, ink (ink, ink)
Print my name once, let me have a tee
You need me (need me) and I need you (don't you know)
Without each other there ain't no fun on page F2
