Story Behind The Song
Shit happens and you gotta deal with it.
Song Description
- When you're having one of those weird days, put this on. The best way to describe what this song is about is to reference a line I quoted from one of my favorite authors, Kurt Vonnegut, in Slaughterhouse Five, "And so it goes." Shit happens and ya gotta deal with it, knock me down and I'll bounce back again, "and so it goes."

Lyrics
Heaven knows
Heaven knows how I've tried
Heaven knows
Heaven knows how I might
Knock me down and I'll bounce back again
Go another round
Think it was, yes it's Vonnegut who said
"And so it goes"
Heaven knows
Heaven knows
Heaven knows how I?ve cried
Heaven knows
Heaven knows how I might
Shit goes around and it comes back again
From another side
Think it was, yes it's Vonnegut who said
"And so it goes"
Heaven knows
Bow diddy dow
My world is fast spinning round
Got two feet on the ground
But my head's in the clouds
Don't have time to explain
The reasons get obscured anyway
Besides there's nothing to say
You haven't already heard before
We survive
And you know it's a fight
In the end
Only time brings insight
Shit goes around and it comes back again
From another side
Think it was, yes it's Vonnegut who said
"And so it goes"
Heaven knows
Heaven knows
