Pretty Please (Also owed to John Prine)

What is wrong with myself today,

Why can’t I think of something clever to say,

Why do I feel so ill at ease,

Why do I feel I have to beg you pretty please?

Pretty Please

What happened to my self confidence,

Why is what I’m saying not making sense,

What does my stomach turn and ache,

What do I feel like something’s gonna break?

Who can tell when they look at me,

When they do, what do they see,

Why do I feel so ill at ease,

Why do I feel I have to beg you pretty please?

Pretty Please

Am I wearing my heart on my sleeve,

Am I someone that you can believe,

Do you see the hurt in my eyes,

Is there something I should realize?

Do you know what I should do,

Is there something I can ask from you,

Why do I feel so ill at ease,

Why do I feel I have to beg you pretty please?

Pretty Please
