Family of Six

I'd like to think that
I could have a deer in sight
And pull the trigger
Oh, what a time to be alive, yeah
What a time to cross my fingers
And what if Arizona
Was right next to the ocean?
What if I wasn't a bitch?

If a mountain was a canyon
If I was a mechanic
And a gaslight was something I fixed
Remember when they told you
It gets better when you're older
Well, for now, I still feel like a kid
'Cause if you never showed me Bambi
I could breathe instead of panic
I'd provide for a family six (a family of)

I'd like to think
I could have fought in Vietnam
If I was told to
Cross my heart
I swear to God I hope to die
I'll tell the whole truth
If it's cold on the equator
I was never motivated by all this guilt
If the Arctic is a hot tub
And arson is the right stuff

To mend every bridge that I've built
Oh, you just gotta believe me
If I tell you anything
I haven't told a lie(In a really long time!)
Last night I started crying
In the kitchen I was eating
I'm an overly sensitive guy

And I think
Well, It doesn't really matter what I think
Throw the whole thing at it
Throw the kitchen sink
Never mind, I take it back
I was just kidding
And I swear

Man, I'm sorry, I forget where I was going there
Where the hell we go next?
I don't even care
But if they ain't splitting checks
I ain't eating there

I'm scared to think
I'll end up making up my mind
And learn the hard way
That everything comes with a price
Every decision starts a new thing
If hell is freezing over
There's a devil
On my shoulder in an anorak jacket
Said, "The sun and stars and moon
Are all revolving around you

If you wanna eat a cake and have it"
As sure as changing seasons
There's an angel labeled reason
Drawing lines in the sand
Said, "Whatever you decide
Won't really impact our survival
Close your eyes, and do the best that you can
Do the best that you can"
