Funny How You Get Used To Things

funny how you get used to things

funny how you get used to things

I went out this morning

and the flags were half mast

something’ musta happened

but the news went by so fast

funny how you get used to things

and you don’t even hardly see

funny how you get used to things

at least that’s how it seems to me

now I don’t even remember their

names or where they’re from

life just takes over

and things come undone

funny how you get used to things

it almost seems normal

and if I was a frog in the water

and the water was gettin’ hot

I might just stay in there and swim around

cause I like it a lot

funny how you get used to things

you don’t even hardly feel it

what does “too late” look like from a distance

how would you know you were gettin’ close

would they welcome you in

and say “you’re the one we love the most”

is that what happens

when you get used to things

and if I was a canary in a coal mine

and the gas was gettin’ thick

I probably couldn’t do anything about it anyway

’cause I’d be gettin’ sick

funny how you get used to things

that it just seems normal

he walked into the room

when everybody was there

he killed a lot of ‘em just like that

and you wonder why people are scared

they just can’t get used to it

can you blame ’em

whatever be the reason

when the rage begins to spin

somebody don’t like your looks

they just might do you in

its hard to get used to some things

it’s better not to

so I’m pickin’ up my baggage

and I’m headed for the road

there’s a future with my name on it

ready to explode

and I can’t get used to it

it’s not normal

I can’t get used to it

I never will

i can’t used to it

i never will
