We just can't keep the gear shift off the word GO

Everybody's off center
Got trouble keeping it together

Everybody's elevator might not go to the top floor
When we have had enough, all we want is more

Everybody's reality, is different than the one that is
That's just the truth, it is how we live

Everybody's been embarrassed, felt lower than low
For it is like that always says, MAN, I TOLD YOU SO

Everybody's been neck deep in alligators
Blind, that in front of them, right there sits the elevator

Here is the inevitable truth that we will not shake
Our lives will not be defined by just one mistake

Everybody has a screw loose
Not a couple, not a few, but all
If we didn't, we wouldn't be normal [comments] => 1 [counter] => 147 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Beyfoxman5 [notes] => Edited for spelling as requested ~ Moderator_18 Oct 5, 2015 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => oops ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Screws Loose

Everybody's off center, been too fast, too slow
We just can't keep the gear shift off the word GO

Everybody's off center
Got trouble keeping it together

Everybody's elevator might not go to the top floor
When we have had enough, all we want is more

Everybody's reality, is different than the one that is
That's just the truth, it is how we live

Everybody's been embarrassed, felt lower than low
For it is like that always says, MAN, I TOLD YOU SO

Everybody's been neck deep in alligators
Blind, that in front of them, right there sits the elevator

Here is the inevitable truth that we will not shake
Our lives will not be defined by just one mistake

Everybody has a screw loose
Not a couple, not a few, but all
If we didn't, we wouldn't be normal
