[Verse 1] The nickel dropped when I was on My way beyond the rubicon What did I do? And of the games that I can handle None are ones worth the candle What should I do? Im a frightened, fickle person Fighting, cryin, kickin, cursin What should I do? [Chorus] Oooh, after all the folderol And hauling over coals stops What will I do? [Verse 2] Cant take a good day without a bad one Dont feel just to smile until Ive had one Where did I learn? I make a fuss about a little thing The rhyme is losing to the riddling Wheres the turn? I dont want a home, Id ruin that Home is where my habits have a habitat Why give it a turn? [Chorus] Oooh, after all the folderol And hauling over coals stops What did I learn? [Bridge] I am likely to miss the main event If I stop to cry or complain again So I will keep a deliberate pace Let the damned breeze dry my face [Breakdown] Ooooh mister wait until you see What Im gonna be [Verse 3] Ive got a plan, a demand and it just began And if youre right, youll agree Heres coming a better version of me [Outro] Here it comes, a better version of me Here it comes, a better version of me
version, folderol, hauling, coal, oooh
