What’s in It for Me? Lyrics by Robert Ellis

Photographs

2011

What's in it for me, you just be mad cause I came home late
You tell me just how bad my clothes stink
Ask me how much I've had to drink
What's in it for me, I wish we didn't have to argue
I wish you'd just say how I love you
Then I'd know what's in it for me

Oh, how I loved you
Ever since the beginning
Now all the games I'm loosing
At a time I was winning
Time has passed and things are not what they used to be
Sometimes it gets so hard to see
What's in it for me
What's in it for me

It seems that you know other women can't decide
All the reasons you love us, become the things you despise
I've tried and tried so hard but it seems
That I just can't win
Oh baby tell me once again
What's in it for me

What's in it for me, you just be mad cause I came home late
You tell me just how bad my clothes stink
Ask me how much I've had to drink
What's in it for me, I wish we didn't have to argue
I wish you'd just say I love you
Then I'd know what's in it for me
