You Picked a Real Bad Time Billy Joel

Don't get me wrong
I ain't the kind
To turn away from you
When something's on your mind

But you have to know
You just have to see
I'm having my troubles, babe
And they're all too much for me

You picked a real bad time to spoil my concentration
You picked a real bad time to pass along the bad news
Tell me why you try to give me aggravation
You picked a real bad time 'cause this man's got the blues

Don't get me wrong
You're not alone
I'd like to help you
But I've got problems of my own

It's a bitter phase
I'm going through
And I can run from strangers, darlin'
But I just can't hide from you

You picked a real bad time to spoil my concentration
You picked a real bad time to pass along the bad news
Tell me why you try to give me aggravation
You picked a real bad time and I ain't got time to lose
