Sometimes the Wheels

[Verse 1]
A knock on the door, here
It's early morning
Man in a suit says
He wants to talk to me
About the big JC
Now who the fuck is he?
Reaching down in there
He takes out a Bible
Says He was a man
Just like you and me
Oh, whoopee dee

I don't like his suit
And I don't like his tie
And I don't like the fact
That he's so happy
Can't be for me
The big JC

[Chorus]
Now sometimes the wheels fall off
And sometimes you can't get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don't talk much
And sometimes the world moves fast
And sometimes you can't keep up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don't think much
No, I don't think much
No, I don't think much

[Verse 2]
Boy on the pavement, here
He's looking a picture
He looks like the Eighties
Oh, why'd it happen to me?
Twice in a lifetime, now
Twice in a lifetime, Lord
Teenage years tryna not look
Like somebody like him
But what can I do?

[Pre-Chorus]
Shoulder pads and belts
Morten Harket in tights
Oh, I'm sorry, they're jeans
But how'd you get them on?
And will they ever come off?
Will they ever come off?

[Chorus]
Sometimes the wheels fall off
And sometimes you can't get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don't talk much
And sometimes the world moves fast
And sometimes you can't keep up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don't think much
No, I don't think much
No, I don't think much

[Verse 3]
There's a knock on the door, here
It's early evening
It's Dangerous Dave
He's come to break my house
'Cause he's a dangerous sot
But I like him a lot
Now we talk about music
And we talk about friends
Before we realize that we don't know
All that much about either of them
That's the way things are
Between Dave and me

[Pre-Chorus]
Shoulder pads and belts
Morten Harket in tights
Oh, I'm sorry, they're jeans
But how'd you get them on?
And will they ever come off?
Will they ever come off?

[Chorus]
Sometimes the world moves fast
And sometimes you can't get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
And I don't talk much
And sometimes the wheels fall off
And sometimes you can't get up
And sometimes I just sit and think
But I don't think much
No, I don't think much
No, I don't think much
No, I don't think much
No, I don't think much
