What's The Excuse This Time?
 作词 : Butler, McAlmont ...
 作曲 : David McAlmont/Bernard Butler
You oughta give me something(You said you would)
I try to figure just how long it has been
You said you would you said you could
So say now, how long will it be?
I just want to see
You oughta give me something(You said you would)
Am I impatient, are you taking your time
You spoke about it, talked about it
But I still can't see
What it's supposed to be, yeah
I never asked for much in my life
I've always managed to pass things by
But a promise is a promise
So tell me now
What's the excuse this time? Yes
You oughta give me something(You said you would)
This century is dawning to its close
I could wait forever, stay forever
Until you felt inclined I suposse(But when, no one knows)
You oughta give me something(You said you would)
I'm not expecting the moon or the stars
This thing has been so scarse I must declare
I still can't tell how good you are (how good you are)
I never asked for much in my life
I've always managed to pass things by
But a promise is a promise
So tell me now
What's the excuse this time?
A promise is a promise
So tell me now
What's the excuse this time?
A promise is a promise
So tell me now
What's the excuse this time?
You oughta give me something(You said you would)
Cos you started something(You said you would)
You oughta give me something(I think you should)
Just a little something(You said you would)
You oughta give me something(Just a little bit)
Just a little something(Can't get rid of it)
Just a little something(Just a little bit)
Then we started something(Just a little bit)
You oughta give me something(You said you would)
Just a little something(Just a little bit)
