YOU CAN TRY ME
OJO 2004

You can try
but you are never going to make me cry
I have been through it all
a long time ago

Come on
let us do something nice
don't act like a donkey
that won't do anything
without a big carrot up front
come on

You can screw me around
but you will never
get me down on the ground
I am a man
and I know in my heart
what I can

You can fool around
and make me look like a clown
but don't you forget
what you can do
I can do best
so please let it rest

You can talk about me
and tell everybody
that I am no good
but don't you believe
that you are the only tree
that is standing in the great wood

You can take my pride
and you can shout out loud
that I give you in
and make all kinds of sin
but don't you forget
what goes around
comes around
and sometime when you feel safe
without no warning
you will find yourself
nailed to the wall
because words have a nasty habit
they find their way back
so think about this
and shut up your lips
