Floss For the Future

I was down
I was down on my luck
Felt like I’d been hit by karma like a ten ton truck
I was talk, talk, talking
Talking loud just for fun
I said “I’d walk right into an exploding sun”

Yet I floss for the future
I floss to teach the kids my ways
I floss like it’s important
I floss every single day

That seems like a lot, well could it be it’s too much?
Even something good for you can turn into a crutch
I was laugh, laugh, laughing
Laughing right at the void
I knew I had no choice, some things just can’t be destroyed

So I floss for the future
I floss to teach the kids my ways
I floss, it’s so important that I’m flossing every single day

I went to the doc, said “Can you tell me the truth, is it worth it to floss or just a myth from my youth?”
Room went silent, she stared straight ahead, looked me right in the eyes and this is what she said
Yeah, this is what she said
She said: “Needle it through, pull it too, you know you’ve got to do what they tell you to- floss”

I floss for the future
I floss to teach the kids my ways
I floss, I’m so important
I’m flossing for remaining days

“Needle it through, pull it too, you know you’ve got to do what they tell you to- floss”
