Just One Moment - Badlees

Hypocrisy as it oughta be, 
That's called good business 
Sometimes it really bothers me 
How I got in this 
Took this job a-thinkin' 
I'd be movin' up some day 
Been too busy drinkin' 
To be carin' either way

The wife she ain't been workin' 
'Cause her time is growing near 
But the IRS ain't takin' 
No sabbaticals this year 
Working on commission 
Against weekly guarantees 
This soldier's on a mission 
But it ain't for charity 

CHORUS

Give me just one moment with 
The wheel between my hands 
Just one moment, I'll make you understand 
Don't confuse all the games you lose 
With failing as a man 
Just one moment, 
I'll show you who I am

Went in to see the boss man 
To ask him for a raise 
Never did quite understand 
All the reasons that he gave 
His 8" X 10" of Jesus 
Had turned it's back to me 
I guess mortal man can't comprehend 
That dense morality 

So I bought my wife some roses 
And I tied them with a bow 
Called the boss up at 3 AM 
And I told him where to go 
Now we're driving down the highway 
Back to where we first began 
With me back in the driver's seat 
And her holding my hand

CHORUS
