You've helped me out of so many scrapes
You've helped me wait and wait and wait
You've helped me when I had to pretend
You've helped me walk through thickets again and again
Once you got into a car with me
And we were both sitting in the back seat
And the driver, he was so friendly
He had driven me so many times
I couldn't remember his name
And I probably should have remembered
But I couldn't remember his name

And so I wrote something on my hand
For you to see, to help me, help me
Then I poked you and I showed you my hand
I'd drawn an arrow and underneath it said
*duce yourself
*duce yourself
*duce yourself

*duce yourself
Went down the Danforth on Christmas Eve
Cause there is something I just believe
And I believe it permanently
I thought of it so many times
And maybe I walked up to the front door
Of the black pearl tattoo parlor
And I put it down
And I put this on my hand forever
For you to see how you have helped me
So when I see you
I'll show you my hand
You'll always see the arrow
And underneath it saying
*duce yourself
*duce yourself
*duce yourself
*duce yourself
Thank you for your help
