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
