Bad Things Happen

You got everything you ever wanted
Not a single thing you really need
Room to move but you’re feeling cornered
So much freedom that you can’t break free
All of the debts that you never paid
A Cracker Jack prize for the games you played
What would you pay for a day of bliss
A dollar, a dime, or your happiness
Oh… They split the atom. Oh… Bad things happen
What did you expect
A noose around your neck
While you’re singing la da di a da di da
It isn’t funny when the bullet hits you
But that’s the biggest joke of all
A little later and it would’ve missed you
Should’ve looked into your crystal ball
Don’t forget what the gypsy said
A word to the wise, better take your meds
It’s one of those days that you dress in black
You gave him you’re heart and he gave it back
Oh… They split the atom. Oh… Bad things happen
What did you expect
A life full of regret
While you’re singing la da di a da di da
What did you expect
A noose around your neck
A life full of regret
What was your belief
Surrender like a thief
Do you crave to be saved
Singing la da di a da di da
