[Chorus 1] I'm working on my rewrite, that's right Going to change the ending Throw away the title Toss it in the trash Every minute after midnight All the time I'm spending Is just for working on my rewrite Going to turn it into cash [Verse 1] I been working at the Car Wash I consider it my day job Because it's really not a pay job But that's where I am Everybody says "The old guy Working at the Car Wash?" Hasn't got a brain cell left Since Vietnam [Chorus 2] But I say Help me, help me Help me, help me Thank you! I'd no idea That you were there [Verse 2] When I said help me, help me Help me, help me Thank you For listening to my prayer I'll eliminate the pages Where the father has a breakdown And he has to leave the family But he really meant no harm Gonna substitute a car chase And a race across the rooftops Where the father saves the children And he holds them in his arms [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2]
