Regrets

I thought about sitting on the floor in second grade

I couldn't keep the pace

I thought I was the only one moving in slow motion

While the other kids knew something I did not

But if I acted like a clown

I thought it get me through, it did

But that don't work no more, you're not a kid no more

I thought I'd do some traveling, never did

Regrets, regrets

I thought about the hours wasted

Watching TV, drinking beer

I thought about the things I thought about

Until immobilized with fear

And all the great ideas I had

And how we just made fun

Of those who had the guts to try and fail

And then I ended up in jail

Regrets, regrets, regrets, regrets

Then for a day, it seems the police had made a computer mistake

Said there must be thousands like me with the same name

Anyway, I thought about the things I settled for or never tried

I never visited my grandma even once when she was sick before she died

So I don't blame you if you never come to see me here again

Regrets, regrets, regrets
