You Were Probably Right All Along, Jack (feat. The Traditional)
It's another year that came and went
Distracted by the bustling
Of feet that drag the pavement
Without ever missing a beat a beat
A beating that we take willingly
Wish my old friend would sing again
But there's a cold dead tree inside of him
I never understood what that meant
But now I see ever so clearly
Sometimes things don't work
Sometimes we get hurt
It's another year for shouting out
The changes that we boast about
But in the wake of fireworks
Still left with cold dead leaves leaves
Leaving us feeling empty
Well alter all tear all again
Like we might find something so different
Running in circles with calendars
Well it never really ends
Sometimes things don't work
Sometimes we get hurt
Bashed in knocked out
Black eyed lock jawed
Swollen bloody mess
Sticks and stones
And broken bones
Left always second best
Sometimes things don't work
Sometimes we get hurt
Distracted by the bustling
Of feet that drag the pavement
Without ever missing a beat a beat
A beating that we take willingly
Wish my old friend would sing again
But there's a cold dead tree inside of him
I never understood what that meant
But now I see ever so clearly
Sometimes things don't work
Sometimes we get hurt
It's another year for shouting out
The changes that we boast about
But in the wake of fireworks
Still left with cold dead leaves leaves
Leaving us feeling empty
Well alter all tear all again
Like we might find something so different
Running in circles with calendars
Well it never really ends
Sometimes things don't work
Sometimes we get hurt
Bashed in knocked out
Black eyed lock jawed
Swollen bloody mess
Sticks and stones
And broken bones
Left always second best
Sometimes things don't work
Sometimes we get hurt
