One of Those Things

You've been icing your ego Surprising yourself Advising his health from afar You're no doctor but you knew All you had to do All you had to prove to become a liar And it's just one of those things It keeps the crowds away When you make like a tree and stay It's just one of those things To know your enemies and Keep 'em close to me and pray You've been traveling so much Whiskey's your crutch Everyone around you's a bad influence You've been timing your curfew Supplying your own crew Surprising the lot with a well played game of chess And it's just one of those things It keeps the crowds away When you make like a tree and stay It's just one of those things To know your enemies and Keep 'em close to me and pray Everybody's wants to know Just how you train a rat And what the fuck Am I supposed to do with that? It's a meeting of minds The best of their kind The rest of the night will be a mess But in the final hour Good choices save the day New voices pave the way And you can have the rest And it's just one of those things It keeps the crowds away When you make like a tree and stay It's just one of those things To know your enemies and Keep 'em close to me and pray Yeah hey hey hey Yeah
