Lyrics

[00:33.59] It's really too bad
[00:35.47] He became a prisoner of his own past
[00:38.13] He stabbed a moment in the back with a brown thumb tack
[00:41.09] That held up the list of things he gotta do
[00:43.52] It's really no good
[00:45.89] He's moving on before he understood
[00:48.22] He shot the future in the foot with every step it took
[00:51.09] From the faces that he knew 'cause he forgot to look
[00:53.62] Better staple it together and call it bad weather
[00:56.55] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[00:59.11] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[01:01.59] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[01:04.02] Mm mm
[01:14.18] Well, I guess you could say
[01:16.82] That he don't even know where to begin
[01:19.46] 'Cause he looked both ways but he was so afraid
[01:21.91] Diggin' deeper through the ditch, every chance he missed
[01:24.40] And the mess he made
[01:27.04] 'Cause hate is such a strong word
[01:29.57] And every brick he laid, a mistake they say
[01:31.87] That his walls are getting taller, his world is getting smaller
[01:34.69] Better staple it together and call it bad weather
[01:37.35] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[01:39.97] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[01:42.53] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[01:44.93] Mm mm
[02:05.41] It's really too bad
[02:07.16] He became a prisoner of his own past
[02:09.80] He stabbed a moment in the back with a brown thumb tack
[02:12.96] That held up the list of things he gotta do
[02:15.31] It's really no good
[02:17.53] He's moving on before he understood
[02:20.06] He shot the future in the foot with every step it took
[02:23.09] From the faces that he knew 'cause he forgot to look
[02:25.71] He better staple it together and call it bad weather
[02:28.71] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[02:31.17] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[02:33.60] Staple it together and call it bad weather
[02:36.00] If the weather is better, we should get together
[02:38.74] Spend a little time and we can do whatever
[02:41.14] And if we get together we'll be twice as clever
[02:43.68] So, staple it together and call it bad weather
[02:46.03] Mm mm
