The Very Last Time [Utopia]

Todd Rundgren · Very Best Of Todd Rundgren [1997]

Sometimes I wonder if I'm still alive

How much abuse can someone stand and survive

How long I've waited for the day to arrive

When I won't be a fool no more



Nobody knows how you push me around

Nobody sees how you treat me like I'm your clown

I never made a sound



It's the very last time you will get on my case

It's the very last time cause I won't be a fool no more

It's the very last time you will step on my face

It's the very last time cause I won't be a fool no more



I still remember the look in your eyes

Just a reflection of the things you despise

But sooner or later I've got to get wise

And I won't be a fool no more



Nobody sees how you treat me like dirt

Nobody knows just how badly a man can hurt

You've got a lesson to learn



It's the very last time you will get on my case

It's the very last time cause I won't be a fool no more

It's the very last time you will step on my face

It's the very last time cause I won't be a fool no more



I can still feel the sting of your words

But I won't cry no matter how much it hurts

My head may go crazy, my heart it may burst

But I won't be a fool no more

No, I won't be a fool no more



It's the very last time you will get on my case

It's the very last time cause I won't be a fool no more

It's the very last time you will step on my face

It's the very last time cause I won't be a fool no more
