lyrics

Can’t recollect or explain
What happens when I cause such pain
I’m sorry for remembrin less
But my liver’s sore and my brain’s a mess.

No sense in wondering why
I can’t see out one eye
My favorite shirt’s all ripped
And I lost a tooth and gotta busted lip.

Oh, I’ve been around, so ya don’t have to tell me
Exactly how my charms utterly fail me
I know myself, and I’ve known me for so long

I can guess I’m the reason for strife
I confess I’ve been bad all my life
And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong.

Take, for example, my average weekday riddle:
The bookends are clear, but I can’t recall the middle

Well it usually begins
With the company of good friends
In front of a mason jar
But I wind up in a police car

And everything in between is a fog
I start out a cool cat and I wind up a dog
Calamity’s caused when I wag my tongue

I don’t need to know what was said
But I’m sure I deserve my nose bled
And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong.

I hate to be that guy
‘Cause I’m usually quite shy
But my aptitude to think
Flies out the door when I have a drink

And commence to make a little joke
That comes out foul when my filter’s broke
And innocently assume it’s all in fun.

I’ve learned to accept that the fault is mine
When things turn bad and the fists start to fly
And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong.

And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong.
And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong.
