πŸ“œ Lyrics

They say, "The good die young," but it ain't for certain
I been good all day, I ain't hurtin'
Not in any way
I'm too old to die young

I shouldn't talk too loud
Bad luck is preying on the proud ones
There's nothin' like lying in a graveyard
To teach you to hold your tongue

They say, "The Devil was an angel back in the beginnin'"
So, was I nobody's pinnin' any hopes on me
I ain't sayin' that they oughta

I didn't wanna change, but the road kept slidin' in a funny way
And I kept ridin' on it anyway
Sometimes, you do what you gotta

What they say, what they do
They'll swear it is, they'll think it's true
When they think it all, but they ain't willin'
If they can't think of what to say, they talk anyway
It's all clichΓ© fast food for the brain, but not too fillin'

They say, "Time and tide will wait for no-one"
The time it takes one tide to go one time
Around the world would leave you spinnin'

But the race is on between the tide
And then, the people livin' right beside it
No one's drownin' yet, but they ain't winnin'

If words were wisdom, we'd all speak
And smarten up from week to week
Just sayin', "Live and learn," there's nothin' to it

Friends in need are the friends indeed
But the friends who think of what we need
They hardly talk at all, they just do it
They hardly talk at all, they just do it
