Lyrics

Thanks A Lot-Howard Kroeger

I'm taking chances I don't really want to
The things I'm doing could be the death of me
Before I cross the line to the hereafter
I need to tame the beast inside of me
I've been living with the urge to pass my limits
In everything I see and hear and do
Growing up I always felt so restless inside
The teachers told me not to come to school

FOR ALL OF YOU WHO THOUGHT THAT I WAS CRAZY
AND DIFFERENT FROM THE REST...WELL YOU WERE RIGHT
A WHACKJOB'S LIF AIN'T EASY IF THE BEAST INSIDE AINT' TAMED
BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TONIGHT

The pills stopped working years ago at Christmas
The shrink they sent me to...the bastard fell asleep
Here I thought I had told him all there was to tell about me
But for two hundred bucks an hour all he could do was snore really loud for me

So I packed up all my things and hit the highway
I chained smoked all the way to Tennessee
Six hundreds mile of driving, and thinking between the cigarettes and bad coffee
And counting down all my broken dreams

FOR ALL OF YOU WHO THOUGHT THAT I WAS CRAZY
AND DIFFERENT FROM THE REST...WELL YOU WERE RIGHT
A WHACKJOB'S LIF AIN'T EASY IF THE BEAST INSIDE AINT' TAMED
BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TONIGHT
I REALLY THINK I'M GOING TO BE ALRIGHT...
