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 why 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
