"Family Of Six" lyrics

I'd like to think that I could have a deer in sight
And pull the trigger
Oh, what a time to be alive
Yeah, what a time to cross my fingers

And what if Arizona
Was right next to the ocean?
What if I wasn't a bitch?
If a mountain was a canyon
If I was a mechanic
And the gaslight was something I fixed

Remember when they told ya it gets better when you're older
Well, for now, I still feel like a kid
'Cause if ya never showed me Bambi
I could breathe instead of panic
I'd provide for a family of six
A family of

I'd like to think I could have fought in Vietnam
If I was told to
Cross my heart, I swear to God, I hope to die
I'll tell the whole truth

If it's cold on the equator
I was never motivated by all this guilt
If the Arctic is a hot tub
And arson is the right stuff
To mend every bridge that I've built

Oh, you just gotta believe me
If I tell you anything
I haven't told a lie
In a really long time
Last night, I started crying
In the kitchen, I was eating
I'm an overly sensitive guy

And I think
Well, it doesn't really matter what I think
Throw the whole thing at it, throw the kitchen sink
Never mind, I take it back, I was just kidding

And I swear
Man, I'm sorry, I forget where I was going there
Where the hell we go next? I don't even care
But if they ain't splitting checks, I ain't eating there

I'm scared to think I'll end up making up my mind
And learn the hard way
That everything comes with a price
Every decision starts a new thing

If hell is freezing over
There's a devil on my shoulder in an anorak jacket
Said, "The sun and stars and moon are all revolving around you
If you wanna eat a cake and have it"

As sure as changing seasons, there's an angel labeled reason
Drawing lines in the sand
Said, "Whatever you decide won't really impact our survival
Close your eyes and do the best that you can"
Do the best that you can
