I'm waving the flag A bitter off white The color you choose When you give up the fight Throw in the towel Calling it quits I've had enough Of the meaningless Calling a truce Ready to yield Raising both hands Out in left field Not mock surrender But the real thing Along with the fat lady I'm ready to sing From here ever after My tongue's gonna stop Box up the chatter Sweep up spilled guts I'll nod along As I'm read my writes I'm now more than ready To give up the fight
