Help Yourself Lyrics By Amy Winehouse

When I walk in your shoes
I understand a man confused
They much too big, but I don’t care
I feel the weight your shoulders bear
Darling they empathize
Looking through your bloodshot eyes
And I know you, you’re so frustrated
Above we all become what we once hated
Besides, nobody can be that wise

I can’t help you if you won’t help yourself
(Help yourself, help yourself)
No, I can’t help you if you don’t help yourself
(Help yourself, no no no)
You can only get so much from someone else
(Get so much from, yeah)
I can’t help you if you won’t help yourself
(You can’t help yourself)

You got a degree in philosophy (philosophy)
So, you think you’re cleverer than me (’cause you’re so smart)
But, I’m not just some drama queen (drama queen)
‘Cause it’s where you’re at, not where you’ve been
So, what do you expect from me (what do you want)
To hold your head above the sea (keep you high and dry)
And carry you even though you’re bigger
‘Cause don’t you know you crush my tiny figure
And anyway, we’re still so young (yeah, I’m so young)
And this isn’t yesterday

I can’t help you if you won’t help yourself
(I can’t help you)
No, I can’t help you if you don’t help yourself
(You won’t help yourself)
You can only get so much from someone else
I can’t help you if you won’t help yourself

You might be twenty-five but in my mind
I see you at sixteen years oh most of the time
And I’m, I’m just a child and you’re full grown
And no I’m nothing like I’ve ever known yeah
You are like nothing that I ever knew
