There will always be someone to tell you what to do

And there will be someone to see you try and laugh at you

Now I'm too dumb to get right

But I'm dumb enough to try tonight

And I'm sure there'll be someone out there laughing at me too

CHORUS

I sure have spent a lot of nights in worse ways than this

I sure have spent a lot of nights in worse ways than this

But you know that don't mean I'm having a good time tonight

You can be a kid in Sunday clothes

Trying way to hard to strike a natural pose

Or a singer where he don't belong

Trying to hide behind a song

And he's not even sure if he remembers how it goes

CHORUS

You can stir your coffee with your thumb

You can beat on a saxophone you can blow into a drum

It's easy to find rules to break

There's so many mistakes to make

And I'll just stay right here till I've made every single one

CHORUS
