VERSE

Keep trying to get ahead
But you're falling behind
Can't even stand up now
Falling on your backside

PRE-CHORUS

The wheels are turning
You'd best take a seat
Life is rearing its head now
Don't get knocked off your feet
Don't get knocked off your feet

CHORUS

Throw yourself to the bottom
Make your spirit feel broke
Play it up like the victim
You're the butt of the joke

VERSE 2

You keep taking chances on heads
But you always keep ending up tails
Feeling broken like a bum
Keep going off of the rails


PRE-CHORUS

The wheels are turning
You'd best take a seat
Life is rearing its head now
Don't get knocked off your feet
Don't get knocked off your feet

CHORUS X2

Throw yourself to the bottom
Make your spirit feel broke
Play it up like the victim
You're the butt of the joke

Throw yourself to the bottom
Make your spirit feel broke
Play it up like the victim
You're the butt of the joke

BRIDGE

Time is not on your side
And you know it to be true
You're not the things that you say
You're just the things that you do
Time is not on your side
And you know it to be true
You're not the things that you say
You're just the things that you do


PRE-CHORUS

The wheels are turning
You'd best take a seat
Life is rearing its head now
Don't get knocked off your feet
Don't get knocked off your feet
