Help Yourself

If you're gonna do it, do it right

Don't leave it overnight

If you're gonna help me help me now

Another ten minutes will be too late



Like a crying child I need comfort now

Don't pick me up when the tears are dry on my face

I need someone to help me but not you, you're not ready

Seems you have trouble helping yourself



It takes time to notice

But you don't seem to know time keeps moving

What you're doing is wasting my time

You would help me more

Help me more if you helped yourself



Help yourself, help yourself



You wanna get yourself together

Don't you wanna put yourself to right

I said, "Get yourself together

Don't you wanna put yourself to right"



I said, "No, don't apologize you've done your best"

Seems it still ain't right leave me alone

No more to be said

To get it right, you got to do it yourself



I'm going out to help myself

Help myself, help myself

I'm going out to help myself

Help myself, help myself



If you're gonna say it, say it now

Don't leave it overnight

If you're gonna hold me, hold me tight

I don't wanna leave not if it seems all right

Like a crying child I need comfort now

Don't pick me up when the tears are dry on my face



You've got to govern the situation

Nut not you, you're no

And anyway, hold up, hold up, hold up

You're trying to sort out your mind



You've got to get it together

You've got to get it together

It would help me more

Help more if you helped yourself
