Please People Please - Charlie Worsham

I’ve worn suits that didn’t suit me

Shook hands I wouldn’t shake

Turned screws that only screwed me

Took pills I wouldn’t take

It’s a hard one to swallow but I’m done trying to follow the path

From now on I’ll be choosin' based on what I feel

You can’t win for losin'

If you never must appeal

If the target is shootin' for ya, might as well give your pistols back

Please people, please people, please

You can’t please people, please people, please

You can beg so pretty from your knees

But you can’t please people, please people, please

You’ll draw blood from a trunip

Eat a bowl of rainbow stew

'Fore you satisfy 'em all

With the way that you do you

Perfection is subjective, Debbie Downer ain’t your friend

So go on, have your fun

Don’t let nothin' break your smile

There will always be someone to criticize your style

Cuttin' other people down is a means to a miserable end

Please people, please people, please

You can’t please people, please people, please

You can beg so pretty from your knees

But you can’t please people, please people, please

Come on everybody listen to me

Please people, please please please

Even Jesus was preachin' on the mountainside

Tryna teach us about love, we went and crucified him

It only goes to show, someone’s always gotta take offence

Please people, please people, please

You can’t please people, please people, please

You can beg so pretty from your knees

But you can’t please people, please people, please

Why won’t everybody listen to me?

Please people, please please please
