Tables

Lyrics

[Chorus: Stacey Michelle] I don't wanna feel like this for one more day I don't wanna feel that way, gonna make a change today Hand held high and a smile on my face 'Cause karma comes back around And these tables, tables gonna turn [Verse 1: Jamie Drastik] Meet Henry, Henry super friendly But even though he's friendly, it don't mean that he is many Friends that is, at least he's here His older brother's friends said they look after the kid But they're in different schools, so that don't help much When Henry falls down, Henry pick himself up So Jack came along with his backpack on Put a tack on Henry's chair that he sat back on Now Henry screaming loud with a tear in his eye Doing everything he can do to hold back the cry The whole class is laughing, teacher ask "What happened?" Jack post the whole thing, "LOL, caption" He ran out the class with the tack in his ass No hall pass, just a bathroom dash He looks in the mirror, it couldn't be clearer Tells himself those circumstances won't last [Chorus: Stacey Michelle] I don't wanna feel like this for one more day I don't wanna feel that way, gonna make a change today Hand held high and a smile on my face 'Cause karma comes back around And these tables, tables gonna turn [Verse 2: Jamie Drastik] Henry's brother found out about Jack and his tack Him and his friends got together to plan the attack But Henry said, "No, let me deal with it first" 'Cause if you come to my school, it'll make things worse So, Henry got through it, no help from other students Jack and his crew is abusing some other losers That's what they called 'em but didn't know it scarred 'em If you talk back to Jack, he be a part of his target Four years of this bullshit daily, called Henry a terrorist 'Cause he was his rarely, when school let out Henry felt bitter, 'cause this just kept up on Facebook and Twitter The day at Graduation, Henry's there pacing Didn't wanna deal with Jack but didn't have to face him Principal called the last name to the crowd Henry looked around, Jack was nowhere to be found [Chorus: Stacey Michelle] I don't wanna feel like this for one more day I don't wanna feel that way, gonna make a change today Hand held high and a smile on my face 'Cause karma comes back around And these tables, tables gonna turn [Verse 3: Jamie Drastik] Ten years later, Henry became major Manager at the energy plant and had labor Office with a view, diplomas on the wall Got a wife and three kids and a house that has it all Pick your fence and a dog that he takes on his job Before he goes to work and that's a post to his blog Gets in, starts interviews with other managers Hiring for maintenance, nice way to say janitor In walks Jack, yeah, that Jack with that tack Looks thirty years older like he been through hell and back On his application, Jack checked convicted felon Henry ask, "What for?" but Jack's reluctant to tell it Said, "I'm sorry for the past, I was a child of course" But know I have four kids that's on child support And the court won't let me see 'em 'til I send money to feed 'em I'm alive 'cause my kids, I swear, that's the only reason Henry looked at him, said "Ain't this a bitch?" Ten years later, look how the tables switch He said, "You're hired, you work from 8 to 6" But don't be late, 'cause I won't be taking shit [Chorus: Stacey Michelle] I don't wanna feel like this for one more day I don't wanna feel that way, gonna make a change today Hand held high and a smile on my face 'Cause karma comes back around And these tables, tables gonna turn
