Never Stick Your Neck Out

Lyrics

[BRICE NOBES, spoken] There's this girl I really like, but our first date was disastrous. I mean, horrific. It was... catastrophic. But I should text her, right? [MAN, spoken] I'm not your father [BRICE, spoken] I already texted my father. Here's what he said [MAN, spoken] "A word of advice, Brice"? [BRICE, spoken] Yeah [MAN] "Don't go getting your hopes up They will be dashed, your dreams will be smashed up Best avoid disappointment Hope is a rash, pessimism's the ointment." [BRICE, spoken] Typical dad, always looking out for me. Ever since I was little, he'd sit me on his knee and he'd say "Son, never try, and you can't fail. Never ask and they can't say no. And when in doubt, pull your head in" [BRICE & MAN] Don't go getting your hopes up They will be dashed, your dreams will be smashed up Best avoid complications No good ever came from great expectations [BRICE] Woah [BRICE & MAN] Never stick your neck out Never stick your neck out Remember Never stick your neck out Never stick your neck out [BRICE] So that's how I lived my life If I start to feel too brave Or think that I might take a chance Take a leap, go my own way I hear my father's voice And he'd say, he'd say [BRICE, MAN & MALE COMPANY] Don't go getting your hopes up They will be dashed, your dreams will be smashed up Best avoid disappointment Hope is a rash, pessimism's the ointment Woah Never stick your neck out Never stick your neck out Remember Never stick your neck out Never stick your neck out [MALE COMPANY] Woah oh oh oh Woah oh oh oh oh [BRICE] All this time thought I was fine Floating on a gentle sea Then a girl named Mariel Came along and capsized me [MALE COMPANY] Woah [BRICE] Now I'm riding on a wave I've never felt so alive Or free Or free [MAN, spoken] Text her! [BRICE, spoken] You think? [MAN, spoken] Send that text! [BRICE] I'm gonna stick my neck out [MALE COMPANY] I'm gonna stick my neck out He's free I'm gonna stick my neck out I'm gonna stick my neck out I'm gonna stick my neck out Don't go getting your hopes up I'm gonna stick my neck out He's gonna stick his neck out I'm gonna stick my neck out I'm gonna stick my neck out I'm gonna stick my neck out Don't go getting your hopes up I'm gonna stick my neck out He's free I'm gonna stick my neck out Stick my neck out Don't go getting your hopes up He's gonna stick his neck out [BRICE, spoken] Sent!
