Forty more than I can take today

Wrap it up in cellophane

Throwing out for safety's sake

'Cause they'll just think it sounds the same



(Chorus)

I'll go a day

I'll go a day

I've gone for days



I know a way

I know the way

But I can't speak



And if I stay

Well I'll have to make this up

Sixteen days to find a way

To try and get this shut



And I'll be gone

So I'll be safe

Busy scratching out this ache

Taking pressure off my face

We'll throw this out for safety's sake



(Chorus)

I'll go a day

I'll go a day

I've gone for weeks



I know a way

I know a way

But I can't speak



And if I stay

Well I'll have to make this up

Sixteen days to find a way

To try and get this shut
