Lyrics
 
VERSE 1
 
You part the waters
The same ones that I'm drowning in
You need your casual slaughters
And I'm the one who helps you win
 
CHORUS
 
You've got your grand piano
And you don't even play piano
I'm the one who plays piano
You don't even play piano
Alright...
 
VERSE 2
 
You part the waters
The same ones that I'm thirsty for
You invite your friends to tea
But when it's me you lock the door
 
VERSE 3
 
You've got your credit cards
And you thank your lucky stars
aaahh but...
But don't forget the ones who foot the bill
 
CHORUS
 
You've got your grand piano
And you don't even play piano
I'm the one who plays piano     Alright!
You don't even play piano
 
Owww... You part the waters...
