I write a new song every time I feel sore And I have this dream where I sprint out my front door into the street I'm not fast but I'm mean I'm not quick but I'm sure And when I wake up I'm not anymore When I write a new song I strip it down to the bone Listen over and over Till I have all my ducks in a row Grab my gun One by one They fall down But not before I hit the ground I'm not who I was yesterday And I'm not who I’ll be in a day or two I'm afraid I’ll never be more than I seem When I write a new song I take it out for a ride Play it all my best music Till there’s no other choice but to cry And I won’t make a move But you can bet your life they do And I won’t bide my time Or give you any piece of my mind
