did you see yourself
on the news this evening?
you look good in a tie.
it's no wonder why.

i can't but help but think
you've been a little deceiving.
and i can't figure out why
you would want to lie.

george come clean.
it's me you're talking to.
no matter what it is
i'm here for you.

tell me when was the last time
you spoke with your mother?
she's been worrying about you.
she's not the only one.

have you been to church?
have you taken communion?
have you read today's paper?
tell me what you've done.

george come clean.
these games are wearing thin.
tell me now, what kind of
trouble are you in?

you look like you've got the weight
of the world on your shoulder.
you don't have to carry it alone.
just tell us all what's wrong.

i know you know my number
and i can spot you the quarter.
come on, give me a call.
it's been too long.

george come clean.
i swear i won't be angry.
what's done is done.
it's time to let go of the past.
