Nobody Gets a Smooth Ride

[Verse 1]
Nobody gets a smooth ride
Nobody gets a smooth ride
Nobody gets a smooth ride
Nobody gets a smooth ride
Every child will learn
How the asphalt burns
When he takes a sharp turn too wide
Nobody gets a smooth ride

[Chorus]
I'm really sorry the way things are going these days
Try to be careful, that's all I can say
I'm really sorry the way things are going

[Verse 2]
Civilians needn't wear guns
Civilians needn't wear guns
Civilians needn't wear guns
Civilians needn't wear guns
Bullets rain on us
The hapless populace
Fools will shoot the sky just for fun
Civilians need not wear guns

[Chorus]
I'm really sorry the way things are going these days
Try to be careful, that's all I can say
I'm really sorry the way things are going

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
High flyers oughta use nets
High flyers oughta use nets
High flyers oughta use nets
High flyers oughta use nets
Hold on tight to the bar
Circus trapeze star
What a shame should you fall to your death
High flyers oughta use nets

[Chorus]
I'm really sorry the way things are going these days
Try to be careful, that's all I can say
I'm really sorry the way things are going these days
Try to be careful, that's all I can say
I'm really sorry the way things are going

[Outro]
Nobody gets a smooth ride
