ELO, Lyrics:
Help Yourself

[Verse 1]
I thought I could turn things around
And show you something that was new
But all I got was disappointment
I was left without a clue

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can never change
You just keep on bein' you

[Chorus]
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself

[Verse 2]
And as the world grows dark beneath the setting sun
I think about you
And all the plans that we'd begun but never finished
Seem to turn and run

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can never change
You just keep on bein' you

[Chorus]
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can never change
You just keep on bein' you

[Chorus]
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself

[Verse 3]
And as the world grows bright beneath the rising sun
I think about you
And all the things we never did
'Cause we forgot we ever wanted to

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can never change
You just keep on bein' you

[Chorus]
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself (Help yourself)
You got to help yourself
