I know that you've been sneaking 'round and carefully you're planning something.
Sorry, but I noticed right away.
You're absolutely diligent in every little detail
of the project that you're working on today.

You're tweaking the minutiae and refining every concept.
I must admire your dedication, friend.
But what's truly the remarkable thing 'bout all of your efforts
Is how useless they all are in the end.

Your project sucks
It's not your ticket out of here
Your project sucks, my friend.
Your project sucks
Hey, don't kill the messenger
You're gonna die poor in the end

Now take is easy, friend. I know exactly what you're thinking.
You've got an awful look upon your face.
Now don't get all defensive. I am only tryin' to help you out.
I don't want all your time to go to waste.

It's just that all this plotting and this measuring and planning
Has lead to the conclusion that I have.
It isn't that you haven't done the work or done the research.
The outcome is just really, really bad.

Your project sucks
It's not your ticket out of here
Your project sucks, my friend.
Your project sucks
Hey, don't kill the messenger
You're gonna die poor in the end

Your motivation's aok.
And I support you come what may.
But understand I have to say
Exactly my opinion.
You can give a man a fish
and you can teach a man to fish
but he will not catch any fish
with no talent within him.

Your project sucks
It's not your ticket out of here
Your project sucks, my friend.
Your project sucks
Hey, don't kill the messenger
You're gonna die poor in the end
