you worked your fingers to the bone
you sacrificed a happy home
now you have nothing to show
my energy`s wasted on you
you must be such a proud man
you must be such a very proud man
i waited on the doorstep down the hallway
ears ringing from the words you threw
you ask me to think about what i`ve done
well mister tell me, how about you?
you must be such a proud man
you must be such a very proud man
(repeat)
i wait like a thief for a real emotion
as if it`s a cure or a magic potion
i`m lost on ideas to escape the burning
and i long for the day when the tables turn
i`m watching you think you`ve got it made
you pace like an animal in a cag
it must have been something i said
my energy`s wasted on you
you must be such a proud man
you must be such a very proud man
(repeat)
