lyrics

Congratulations
You almost made it
You asked for nothing
You got me now

Don't go
It's too wet and cold
Now it's getting late
And it looks like snow
I could play it straight
I could be a man
I could set it straight
Yes I know I can

Oh God, I have broken my staunch code of honor
You're free to move on, so walk out if you wanna
But if you stick with me, I swear I won't do this again

Congratulations
You almost made it
You asked for nothing
You got me now

Don't go
In this bitter storm
Home may not be sweet
But it's dry and warm

You've long since forgotten what it was about me
So pack and unpack but if you can't get out
When your life is a shambles, you'll never be ready to go

Congratulations
You almost made it
You asked for nothing
You got me now
Don't go

Don't go
It's too wet and cold
Now it's getting late
And it looks like snow
I could be a man
I could play it straight
Not on a red-eye flight
Gone without a trace

No ribbon, no rose, no tuxedoed presenters
When you win the contest that no one else enters
So don't play the victim
You're here 'cause you want me to break you
Like my bullshit code of honor

Congratulations
You almost made it
You asked for nothing
You got me now
Don't go.
