Getting out before the feeling's gone
Staying too long when you know it's wrong
Trying far too hard to read the whole room
When you dish it, better take your own spoon
If you sniff it I can feel it in the air
Unless you check em they're not going anywhere
Choppin up your rotten stumps to clear em out
You gotta deal with all the lumps you got around
Glaring character flaws
I'm trying to work on them
And I'm pulling out the stops to go ahead
Atonin for the things I've done and said
Pushin others from the cover of your love
Broken out of by degrees you're not above
Carried to and from and back into embarrassment
Need a carriage that'll help along a merriment
Crooked inconsistencies will be the death of ya
Don't address em than you're muffling a clarion
Better stamp em out than interview a ghost
But if it whispers shout it loud and raise a toast
