If you're scared and it shows cause you're watching them grow
And traveling blows when you're out of road
And when you jump up the earth wants you back


Your resentment grow till you're all alone
But you're so smart how could they not know

When you're standing there in good humored white

And how do you do it?

And make it seem effortless
When its all the stupid things
So overwhelming to me

Like paying my bills
Or showing up for work early
Or laughing at your jokes


When you first said that anything goes
Or a problem is a task disguised in work clothes

That's when i knew i had to move
And do you do it?
And make it seem delicate

When its all the stupid things
So damn confusing to me
Like talking it through

Controlling my temper
Like letting it go
Saying please forgive me

Or laughing at your jokes

I have no idea what's been going on lately

And i just wish you'd come over and explain things

And i have no idea what's been going on lately

And i just wish you'd come over and explain things

I have no idea what's been going on lately

And i just wish you'd come over and explain things

I have no idea what's been going on lately

And i just wish you'd come over and explain things

Why do they do it?

Show up anyway
When they know that damn well
There is no room for promotions out here

And maybe it's wise
And maybe i'm just stupid
For laughing at your jokes
