[Verse 1]
You'll never have to hear the word "no"
If you keep all your friends on the payroll
The non-disclosure pages signed
Your secrets safe between those lines
[Verse 2]
The scaffolding will cheer and console you
But remember what your mother told you
That good help is so hard to find
For people who are so refined
[Pre-Chorus]
You're trying to turn into the skid
In this never-ending grid
[Chorus]
There's a long, slow fade
To a darkened stage
And I hear you say
"Only a fool gives it away"
Only a fool would give
Only a fool gives it away
[Verse 3]
You said you wanna stake out your claim
High above the city from where you came
Don't you know the air's so thin?
It starves the brain of oxygen
You'll never have to hear the word "no"
If you keep all your friends on the payroll
The non-disclosure pages signed
Your secrets safe between those lines
[Verse 2]
The scaffolding will cheer and console you
But remember what your mother told you
That good help is so hard to find
For people who are so refined
[Pre-Chorus]
You're trying to turn into the skid
In this never-ending grid
[Chorus]
There's a long, slow fade
To a darkened stage
And I hear you say
"Only a fool gives it away"
Only a fool would give
Only a fool gives it away
[Verse 3]
You said you wanna stake out your claim
High above the city from where you came
Don't you know the air's so thin?
It starves the brain of oxygen
