"Good Samaritan" lyrics - THE HIVES

THE HIVES
"Good Samaritan"

[Verse 1: Howlin' Pelle Almqvist]
No matter how you cry
I can't make it right
I'm not your knight in white
Your shit got me yawnin'
You got your puppy eyes
You got your pitiful sighs
I got one advice
A word of warning

[Pre-Chorus: Howlin' Pelle]
You thought that I could ease your mind
You thought, but this I know
If you want help, I should be last in line
And I'll tell you why it's so

[Chorus: Howlin' Pelle, Nicholaus Arson & Vigilante Carlstroem]
I'm not the answer to your problems, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I'm not the one to help you out, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I never was the good Samaritan, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I'm not the one to sort you out

[Bridge: Howlin' Pelle]
Ahhhhh

[Verse 2: Howlin' Pelle]
So take it away
This whole game you play
You gotta help yourself
Got my own problems
So I try to say
In every kind of way
That your problems stay
I ain't gonna solve 'em

[Pre-Chorus: Howlin' Pelle]
You thought that I could ease your mind
You thought, but this I know
If you want help, I should be last in line
And I'll tell you why it's so

[Chorus: Howlin' Pelle, Arson & Vigilante]
I'm not the answer to your problems, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I'm not the one to help you out, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I never was the good Samaritan, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I'm not the one to sort your out, ooh-ah-ooh-ah

[Outro: Howlin' Pelle, Arson & Vigilante]
I'm not a shoulder you can lean on, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I'm just a someone who will say, ooh-ah-ooh-ah
"I never was the good Samaritan," ooh-ah-ooh-ah
I turned my back and walked away
