Back

I woke up yesterday morning

Fell down two flights of stairs

Well i thought i was wide awake but my legs were still asleep.



Nine-one-one ambulance help me

But i can't reach the phone

So i scream to the neighbors "come over break into my home"



I broke my back

There was nobody there to help me

Broke my back

All the lies and deception won't change the perception that

I fell flat on my ass



I wish this had happened skydiving

That my parachute failed

But a pair of shoes tripped me down stairs and i lay there and wail



Those things i used to take for granted

Now i take sitting down

I can't brush my teeth, chew my nails, give the finger to a clown



I broke my back

And i can't even change the channels

Broke my back

I fell flat on my ass



Well they tell me that i shouldn't get discouraged

But they tell me that i'll never walk again

And they say i'm gonna need alot of courage

And they say i'm gonna need alot of friends



But what i really need is a pair of electric legs.

So i wish some genius would just invent them.

And if they cost to much i'd share with someone else.

Or i would scour the yellow pages and i'd rent them.



I know i can probably pop a wheely

Entertaining the kids

I can put hockey cards in the spokes i can even throw skids



I get a good seat at a concert

Even get stuff for free

Is it cause i'm an excellent guy or cause they're scared of me



I broke my back

And i can't even use the clapper

I broke my back

All the lies and deception won't change the perception that

I fell flat on my ass
