I Can’t Help Your Career (2:40)


It’s a hell of a party
But would you like to go
Anywhere but here?
Take in all of the town
Wear our wariness down
And wait for the dawn to appear

It’s a hell of a city
But would you like to live
Anywhere but here?
Move all over the place
Until we finally face
The problem wasn’t where we were.

And just
What have I done for you lately?
What have I done at all?
I can’t help you with your career, baby
This is what I told you all along
This is what I’ll think of when you’re gone

That’s a hell of a story
But would you like to be
Anyone but you?
Write off all of your debts
Shake off all your regrets
Think of the things you could do.

That’s a hell of a theory
But are you ready to put it to the test?
An experiment run
With a sample of one
And results when you’re finally at rest.

And just
What have I done for you lately?
What have I done at all?
I can’t help you with your career, baby
This is what I told you all along
This is all I’ll think of when you’re gone:

I can’t help your career
I can’t help your career
I can’t help your career
I can’t help your career
