One of Those Things

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You've been icing your ego Surprising yourself Advising his health from afar You're no doctor, but you knew All you had to do All you had to prove to become a liar [Chorus] And it's just one of those things It keeps the crowds away When you make like a tree and stay And it's just one of those things To know your enemies And keep 'em close to me and pray (Hey, hey, hey!) [Verse 2] You've been traveling so much Whiskey's your crutch Everyone around you is a bad influence You've been timing your curfew Supplying your own crew Surprising the lot with a well-played game of chess [Chorus] And it's just one of those things It keeps the crowds away When you make like a tree and stay And it's just one of those things To know your enemies And keep 'em close to me and pray (Hey, hey, hey!) [Bridge] Everybody wants to know just how to train a rat And what the fuck am I supposed to do with that? [Verse 3] It's a meeting of minds The best of their kind The rest of the night will be a mess But in the final hour Good choices save the day New voices pave the way and you can have the rest [Chorus] It's just one of those things It keeps the crowds away When you make like a tree and stay It's just one of those things To know your enemies And keep 'em close to me and pray (Hey, hey, hey!) Hey (Hey, hey, hey!) Hey (Hey!) (Hey!)
