Jim Bogart Songtext
von The Front Bottoms

I would sleep better on your floor than I would ever in my bed
And if your carpet makes my face itch, it′d still be heaven in my head
I would play more than just four chords, if it's a song that you might like
But I am not very good, so I would practice every night

And she said, "Sometimes, things just don′t work out
The way you want them to"
Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way they should flow through

Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way you want them to
Sometimes things just don′t work out
It′s better me than it is you

Break your neck, and I will love you
Like a bird that cannot fly
You will be fine
And she says, "Break your neck, and I will love you
Every night you will be mine"


I would stop doing all those things the doctor tells me not to do
But I don't think he understands, I do all of these things for you
And you′ve got gold plastic on your shelf
That they give to everybody else
And you could say it says your name
But I don't think that, that would help

And she said, "Sometimes, things just don′t work out
The way you want them to"
Sometimes, things just don't work out
The way they should flow through

Sometimes, things just don′t work out
The way you want them to
Sometimes, things just don't work out
It's better me than it is you

Break your neck, and I will love you
Like a bird that cannot fly
You will be fine
And she says, "Break your neck, and I will love you
Every night you will be mine"

And today we could do something that we′ve never done before
And today we could do something more
And today we could do something that we′ve never done before
Done before


(And today we can do something that we've never done before)
And today we can do something more
And today we can do something that we′ve never done before
Done before
