Lyrics

Well a little playground game turned ugly today
Oh yes the ball was thrown, the ball was kicked upon the roof and there it will stay
Until we get the ladder and climb up to the top
Well my friend gets it gets halfway up, I cry out to him, ? You must stop?

And it?s become an accident waiting to happen
All it takes is the slip of a foot
Yes it?s become an accident waiting to happen
But you keep climbing and climbing

To the top of the roof where the tears of god rain down
And you see a steel rod, pick it up, the rain continues to fall all around
You raise it up as if you were king of the world
And I stand down here in agony, watching this disaster unfurl

And it?s becoming an accident waiting to happen
All it takes is an angered god
Yes it?s become an accident waiting to happen
And it won?t wait much longer for you

When you take a ferret and you put it in a suitcase and you send it to your grandmother, yea that?ll do it
When you take a little boy, and you throw him in a pool and you say ?Swim, little boy,? he ain?t gonna swim, he?s only two
When you play chicken with a Mack truck or chicken with a roller coaster, you take a bunch of knives, and you stick them in a toaster
You play chicken with a Mack truck, chicken with a coaster, take a bunch of knives and stick them in a toaster
Chicken with a Mack truck or with a roller coaster, take a bunch of knives and stick them in a toaster

Running ?round with scissors in the pouring rain, and you just don?t want to face it that you?re going insane
You?re always gone cry but you never want to die, your sitting in a corner singing ?My, oh my?
You just keep telling yourself that the grass will be greener, the people will be nicer and the air will be cleaner
But when you finally make it to the other side, there is no where to run, and less places to hide

Well you stand up on the roof, twenty feet above the ground
With a steel rod pointed up to god, the rain continues to fall all around
A lightning bolt then strikes the top of the rod
Oh, and there you go and I see you, and I cry out ?Oh my god!?

Yes, it?s become an accident waiting to happen
That got tired of waiting for you
Yes it?s become and accident waiting to happen
Got sick of waiting and waiting, it?s waiting and waiting, waiting and waiting
And as you fall, I see your face, it?s as if you were saying, ?It?s all your fault?
But it?s just an accident, well now I?m second guessing, cause maybe oh maybe, maybe oh maybe, maybe oh maybe it?s fate
