Better Back Off |
| Now you can’t always get what you want |
| No, you can’t always get what you need |
| Sometimes you lose what you thought you had |
| Now that’s a real bad deal indeed |
| But when you’re angry at life itself |
| Having a bad, bad day |
| Don’t judge yourself so brutally |
| I can’t stand it when you talk that way |
| Oh baby, baby |
| Better back off of that stuff |
| You’d better take it slow |
| I know you know |
| That you’re talking about someone I love |
| Did you say what I think I heard? |
| Did you mean what I think you said? |
| Why don’t you redirect your rage |
| Onto someone else instead |
| Now, we all have to walk that line |
| Between sorrow and happiness |
| Come over here and take my hand |
| Won’t you please give us both a rest? |
| Oh baby, baby |
| Better back off that stuff |
| You’d better take it slow |
| I know you know |
| That you’re talking about someone I love |
| Oh baby, baby |
| I’ve heard enough |
| 'Cause I know you will come through |
| And you know it too |
| You’re talking about someone I love |
