It takes just one look at my hands
Says "kid your no good in a fight"
You can swing just as hard as you can
But the odds are against you alright
I can see how they're drawing you in
I can see how the argument goes
But it's time to plan out your Houdini escape
Cause the windows and doors are all closed
You can walk or you can cab it
Or run just like a rabbit
You're sticking to your habits through thick and thin
You can sway, you can swagger
There's poison on the dagger
A nick'll make you stagger
The fix is in
Two black eyes later I'm down
But I find myself standing again
And I get him to stay on the ground
Saying kid there's no chance you can win
I've heard this whole story before
Some fool tries to challenge the thrown
And I think I recall that it didn't end well
But I've got to find out on my own
You can walk or you can cab it
Or run just like a rabbit
You're sticking to your habits through thick and thin
You can sway, you can swagger
There's poison on the dagger
A nick'll make you stagger
The fix is in
Honey I heard that you drowned
Or at least that you gave it shot
And maybe I came in here seeking revenge
But what it was for, I forgot
