[Verse 1]
My baby's always talking on the phone
Why can't she leave the thing alone?
Can't talk about, can't live without it
Why won't you, won't you help me please?

[Verse 2]
There's a party going on upstairs
Look for a bigger better one out there
Can't live without the knowing all about it
Why won't you, won't you help me please?

[Chorus]
Mistaking lookin' for living in the shadows for friends
I think it's time to be a man again
Why won't you, won't you help me please?
Why won't you, won't you help me please?

[Verse 3]
Took you twenty years to learn your skill
AI gonna do it better still
Tell me, what exactly is a hero beat by ones and zeroes?
Why won't you, won't you help me please?

[Verse 4]
I am putting up a wall of screens
So I don't have to meet a human being
Go put your, put your picture up
Slice of life better than the aggregate
Put it out there, somewhere, anywhere
Why won't you, won't you help me please?
Why won't you, won't you help me please?

[Chorus]
Mistaking lookin' for living in the shadows for friends
I think it's time to be a man again
I'ma turn the wheel upon this wicked time
Please take me, take me, take me back to '69

[Instrumental Outro]
