VERSE
I'm just something for you to do/I'm a place for you to go
I'm a fact you thought you knew/I'm a ball that you love to throw
VERSE
A dirty floor for you to sweep/The pencil with which you write
An appointment for you keep/A safe haven on a stormy night.
CHORUS
My face and my name are always the same/A convenience you're accustomed to
It ain't love, we both can tell/Probably just as well
I'm just something for you to do.
{SPOKEN VERSE, INK SPOTS -STYLE}
Yeah honey, I know for you it's all about people, places and things
Ways to occupy your time
Well, may you find all the joy that brings
For me it's rhythm and rhyme.
VERSE
A ticket you gotta pay/A loose hinge that needs a screw
Little something for a rainy day/Little something for you to do.
CHORUS
My face and my name are always the same/A convenience you're accustomed to
It ain't love we both can tell/Probably just as well
I'm just something for you to do
I'm just something for you to do.
