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 Travelling

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...
