Ben Folds Five - Regrets lyrics

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'd 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 But just for a day 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
