What a fine mess I got myself into this time Who'd have thought a guy like me could crumble I'm sure that not a soul would ever guess that I'm Finding it hard to even stumble
I used to think that I was strong I used to think the world revolved around me Never thought that I was wrong And this big world almost drowned me
Chorus: But I'm breaking out of my routine And about time that I come clean And it's all good and it's all new Let's reintroduce myself to you No trouble that I'm in No way that I can't win And a good man I will be Once I learn it's not all about me
There was a day when the walls were covered with my face Walking through you'd think it was my mother's There was not a single hair out of place One eyebrow just a little bit higher than the other
I used to think that I was cool I used to think the world was for the taking Going to a brand new school Look at all the friends I'm making
Chorus
Yes, we made a deal To become a better man So throw away the books And just do it by feel
