I did lose my cradle to the flood
And I did lose my tenure to the rain
I have met with hard times as have you
It's good to know you feel the same way too
I have walked the boards of empty halls
Never having reached their open doors
I have seen more than I've cared to view
It's good to know you feel the same way too

Man it aint no joke how things can get so out of whack
Life has a sense of humor
It is black

I have been thrown out on colder nights
I have been arrested at midday
I have had my bells rung as have you
It's good to know you feel the same way too
Why does bad news have to be so frank?
Volcanoes! Cancer! Asteroids! Septic tanks!!

Sometimes I feel like a bird in a church
I get the snakes like a ship on the sea
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
I aint got no mother that's probably why
I can't remember ever feeling worse
It's good to know you feel the same way too
