Why Why Not

(album: The Man Without Qualities - 2019)

There ain't no ring
No caller ID
It must be you, you're calling me

If I don't pick up, there'll be no clue
Only that I know it was you

You like the game, you want the chase
I like your eyes, I like your face
You promise me, one day I'll get
But all I know, I haven't yet
And every night we start again
You like my heart, you like to win

You've got the knife now stick it in

Why why not?
I don't know
Why you ask, when you already know
Why you want, to not give?
Cause you know just what you've got
Why, why, why, why not

You love to wait until I'm blue
It must be fun to run like you
You should remember, but you forgot
I think you're smoking like pot
(I think you're hot)

You like the game, you want the chase
I like your eyes, I like your face
You promise me, one day I'll get
But all I know, I haven't yet
And every night we start again
You like my heart, you like to win

You've got the knife now stick it in

Why why not?
I don't know
Why you ask, when you already know
Why you want, to not give?
Cause you know just what you've got
Why, why, why, why not
