I've been working on my rewrite, that's right
I'm gonna change the ending
Gonna throw away my title
And toss it in the trash
ย
Every minute after midnight
All the time I'm spending
It's just for working on my rewrite, that's right
I'm gonna turn it into cash
ย
I've been working at the carwash
I consider it my day job
'Cause it's really not a pay job
But that's where I am
ย
Everybody says the old guy
Working at the carwash
Hasn't got a brain cell
Left since Vietnam
ย
But I say help me, help me, help me, help me
Thank you!
I'd no idea
That you were there
ย
When I said help me, help me, help me, help me
Thank you, (thank you)
For listening to my prayer
ย
I'm working on my rewrite, that's right
I'm gonna change the ending
Gonna throw away my title
And toss it in the trash
ย
Every minute after midnight
All the time I'm spending
Is just for working on my rewrite, that's right
I'm gonna turn it into cash
ย
I'll eliminate the pages
Where the father has a breakdown
And he has to leave the family
But he really meant no harm
ย
Gonna substitute a car chase
And a race across the rooftops
When the father saves the children
And he holds them in his arms
ย
And I say help me, help me, help me, help me
Thank you!
I'd no idea
That you were there
ย
When I said, help me, help me, help me, help me
Thank you
For listening to my prayer
ย
Working on my rewrite
