I´ve been working on a rewrite, that´s right Going to change the ending Throw away the title Toss it in the trash Every minute after midnight
All the time I´m spending Is just for working on the rewrite Going to turn it into cash
I been working at the Car Wash I consider it my day job Because it´s really not a pay job But that´s where I am Everybody says "The old guy Working at the Car Wash?" Hasn´t got a brain cell left Since Vietnam
But I say Help me, help me Help me, help me Thank you! I´d no idea
That you were there
When I said help me, help me Help me, help me Thank you For listening to my prayer I´ll eliminate the pages Where the father has a breakdown And he has to leave the family But he really meant no harm Gonna substitute a car chase And a race across the rooftops Where the father saves the children And he holds them in his arms
