lyrics

Tell Us
Words and music: Michael Waid

chorus:
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all about the story

I know a woman
Call her example “A”
Her sole ambition
Spending her husband’s pay
The stress of the bills causes a heart attack
Now she’s all alone with her things and bored with that

chorus:
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all about the story

I know a man caught in a traffic jam
To wait in line is more than he can stand
He noticed a break
but that was a big mistake
Now his car is crashed and he sits and has to wait

Life is a lesson-Life is a lesson
Life is a lesson-Life is a lesson

I know a couple who argue, fuss and fight
And they will do it
Morning, noon and night
The sound of the screams
The knock of the cop on the door
Crying once again “We won’t do it anymore”

chorus:
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all all about it
Tell us all about the story
