Who Knows 03:31
Who Knows Bird sits on a fence and sings it's tune Take flight in the sky and dip out of view Who knows, where it goes Where it goes I don't know But it don't feel the need to justify Years pass on by and sing their tune Take flight in the sky and dip out of view Who knows, where they go Where they go I don't know But they don't feel the need to justify She's gone And I'm alone Why she's gone I don't know But she don't feel the need to testify Words hang in the air and sing their tune Burn a trail in the sky and dip out of view You know, that it's gone Why it's gone I don't know So don't look at me like you're mystified Bird sits on a fence and sings it's tune Take flight in the sky and dip out of view Who knows Where it goes

Well nothing's ever good enough You can't be pleased and life's so tough All I ever hear about Is you my friend you're down and out You come round here You piss and moan and drink my beer Well she left you for another guy How long can you sit and cry Well you sit around and piss and moan How your life is all but gone You come round here You piss and moan and drink my beer It's not like I don't care It's just that I don't give a damn Well you come around with cap in hand Always short in need of a hand Well time is up I've had enough Truthfully I don't give a stuff You come round here You piss and moan and drink my beer

Hand of God 02:21
In the dark place in my mind I will play it as I see If I have to cut you loose You get no sympathy from me You'll need to learn the ropes If you're gonna ride with me Some things they are expected Some you never see Like the hand of god Reaching out for thee Never won't you know Where you stand with me I will look you in the eye My truth is plain to see If you overstep the mark You'll be answering to me I am hard but I am fair I'll be quick to intervene Like the hand of god I lay my wrath on thee Although you are my brother I will watch and I will see If you're looking to the side Don't think that I won't see Lay down my life for you As you would do for me If someone spills your blood The blood of you and me Like the hand of god I cut and they will bleed

Plan B 03:23
Everybody has Plan B For some it may be C and D What if Plan B is all there is? What if Plan B is all there is? God forbid life takes a turn God forbid mistakes are learned I don't wanna see you hurt No I don't wanna see you hurt Everybody needs a contingency plan Now you got one I'm your man All it took was just some doubt Just a tiny seed of doubt Now Plan B is all there is Now Plan B is all there is Everybody needs a contingency plan She had hers now I'm her man

Just turn your head and walk away I ain't seen that before Just go put on your icy coat, your petty shoes And walk out the door That's the way that it is It's just the way that I roll All the years have led to this Baby that's as good as it gets Sometimes I drink a little too much Maybe you wonder why There just ain't no pleasing you It ain't worth the fight That's the way that it is It's just the way that I roll All the years have led to this Baby that's as good as it gets When the push comes to shove You don't even wanna try Should be obvious to you But you won't look me in the eye Sometimes I think you will change Maybe you'll come around There just ain't no budging you I'm still the devil that you found That's the way that it is It's just the way that I roll All the years have led to this Baby that's as good as it gets That's the way that it is It's just the way that I roll All the years have led to this Baby that's as good as it gets

I'd like to welcome you all On behalf of the bride and the groom If I had the balls to say what I think I could clear the room Had my first drink Round a quarter to two If I'm starting to make no sense Well whoopdee-fuckin-do I got a schooner in the left Cigarette in the right I wish the happy couple All the happiness in their life Or some shit like that... Cause this wedding is horseshit But for my transgressions Be standing in his shoes Well I could never understand Why she saw through me and not through you Now this hot sleek cougar Bout to make her move She drags me down to the floor Well it's only right that I throw her some moves Got a schooner in the left Cigarette in the right I do the hippy shake shake With all of my might oh yeah This wedding is horseshit Got some dick Prattling on about his qualities Well if you knew half the shit he's pulled Bring this crowd down to it's knees Hey hey hey hey The Eagle Rock well it's here to stay But she was never that crazy Bout my wayward moves I got a schooner in the left Cigarette in the right I do the hippy shake shake With all of my might oh yeah This wedding is horseshit

If you think I won't be angry If you think I won't be told If you think I'm on the straight and narrow And I'm too damn old If you think I'm acting sorry Well you might just think again I'm going out tonight And I might just start again If you think I am a spent force With the grey speeding through my hair A mid-drift that's spreading wide and south But you know it's here nor there If you think you know what I'm thinking And you think I just wouldn't dare I'm thinking Al Bundy in Modern Family And the chick with the long black hair Let me tell you I'm deadset angry Let me tell you I won't be told Let me tell you I don't give a flying fig If you think I'm too damn old Well I know I got the money And you can have your share I'm going out tonight And I might just start again
