My mom told me, "Don't get a dog" 'Cause loving and losing's the worst thing of all Oh, I really hope that she's wrong Or that I go before he gets old Won't take the highway at night I'm always convinced it'll end in a fire But I still see crashes on my neighborhood road So who really knows When it all goes up in flames, I wonder Did the dinosaurs see it coming? Did they make a wish on that comet? Did they know that all of a sudden it'd hit you There's some things you just can't control Learned as a kid not to trust Taking candy from strangers, but I never thought That someone who promised to love me would just walk away Guess promises break When it all goes up in flames, I wonder Did the dinosaurs see it coming? Did they make a wish on that comet? Did they know that all of a sudden it'd hit you There's some things you just can't control Like the rainy days when it's floodin' Or the stupid lies that I trusted Never knew that all of a sudden it'd hit me There's some things I just can't control Oh, oh, oh Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh All of a sudden, it hit me There's some things I just can't control Oh, oh, oh Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh All of a sudden, it hit me There's some things I just can't control
