robert can you take me back? (lyrics)

robert can you take me back?
may i offer a suggestion?
for white’s another shade of black
in a different direction

so robert can you take me back?
so robert can you take me back?

robber will you rob me blind?
and blame it on the banker
mary will you please release?
cuz i won’t have time to thank her

and robert will you take me back?

now they’re handin me the keys
and i’m countin on my lawyer
now she’s stuck in someone’s trees
cuz my wind will not deploy her

now robert can you take me back?

robert can you hear me out?
i won’t take another order
mary may i make a toast
with a simple glass of water?

to someone whom i love the most….
someone who will guard my ghost
robert can you take me back?
robert can you take me back?
