You see there's this cat burglar

Who can't see in the dark

He lays his bets on 8 more lives

Walks into a bar

Slips on the 8 ball falls on his knife

Says I don't know what I've done

But it doesn't feel right

Some things don't hold up

Over the course of a lifetime

When's the first time you heard that one 1954

Get to the punch line

Fall to the floor

Give me a minute

And I'll tell you the setup for

The worst joke ever I never

I'll tell you my version of the greatest life story

Don't bore me

Now I am floating

I feel released

The moorings have been dropped

The weights unleashed

Everything is crystalline

Simple and free

The crime of good men who can't wrestle with change

Or are too afraid to face

This life's misjudged unknowns

You're not hurting anybody else's chances

But you're disfiguring your own

Give me a minute

And I'll tell you the setup for

The worst joke ever I never

I'll tell you my version of the greatest life story

Don't bore me I NEVER

Give me a minute

And I'll tell you the setup

You see there's this feeling

That I've heard this one before
