lyrics

i did the legwork
i followed thru
i tripped the wire i rearranged the magnet
and my compass stayed true
and before there was any ink to dry
i'd already changed my face
orientation to salvation well you see
that's my only real saving grace

it ain’t broke
but please feel free to fix it
there’s 2 or 3 paths
but we all know who picks it
i pump my blood into the cuff
but it’s never enough

you feel them kicking from inside the womb
but what can you do you're just a jilted groom
you’re wasting time if you’re keeping score
they outta room on the ground floor

i did the legwork
i followed thru
if i had chips or a ship i would cash in or sail
but that bird has flew
so i dream in advance
and i refresh the page
and in the meantime you pass
that’s cool i should be acting my age anyway

you feel them kicking from inside the womb
but what can you do you just a jilted groom
you’re wasting time if you’re keeping score
they outta room on the ground floor

(and if you have to ask...)
