2 of Everything

My mama always told me, "Son, don't forget your head"
I never understood, it must have been full of lead
Today's no different, I misplace what comes my way
Keeps slipping through my hands

Well, ya know (well, ya know)
I never ask for much
'Cause I know ('cause I know)
Too much is hard to come by, but

I need 2 of everything
It won't take long to lose the one I have (the one I have)
All I need is 2 of everything
Then I'm sure to get ahead

I'm always looking for things I'll never find
Either they all have legs or I'm an old man turning blind
Maybe my train of thought, distracted, has been derailed
Never to find my way back to the station

Well, ya know (well, ya know)
I never ask for much
'Cause you know ('cause I know)
Too much is hard to come by, but

I need 2 of everything
It won't take long to lose the one I have (the one I have)
All I need is 2 of everything
Then I'm sure to get ahead

Well, ya know (well, ya know)

'Cause you know ('cause I know)
Too much is hard to come by, but

I need 2 of everything
It won't take long to lose the one I have (the one I have)
All I need is 2 of everything
To get ahead
