Third Floor Story

Lyrics: Tim Bluhm
Music: Tim Bluhm

A Mother Hips song, sung by Tim Bluhm with Phil Lesh & Friends.

God damn, you neighbor man
You're knockin' on my roof with a broomstick in your hand
You lazy punk, I said you gotta wake up at 6am
But don't you know I don't take my rest 'til then
I'm gonna do you in

You can tell me what you want
You can tell me, but I, I can't give it to you, no, no
Tell me what you want, tell me what you want
You can tell me, but I, I can't give it to you

The company quit, they didn't do shit for my new record
What do I have to do to get a break
Won't somebody just give me a lift
Oh, I feel better already

You can tell me what you want
You can tell me, but I, I can't give it to you, no, no
Tell me what you want, tell me what you want
You can tell me, but I, I can't give it to you

I have a heart that is older than you
I'm a soldier and I'm hurt, it's true
So many times I have tried to brush it off
But your sharpened wit nearly ran me through

Tell me, tell me what you want now
You can tell me, tell me what you want now
Tell me what you want, I can't give it to you
Tell me what you want
