You’re one step ahead of me
And I'm one hundred steps behind
Where I oughta be

But I’ll go there some other time
‘Cause I need something
Just to see me through

Gimme something
Be my pick-me-up
I'm strung out on you

I cry like Liv Ullmann
When the camera is trained on me

I call up the Pentagon
To wage war on a memory
And I need backup
Like I always do

Gimme something
Be my pick-me-up
I'm strung out on you
