"Careful, Kid" lyrics

"Careful, Kid"

If you know, you know
Well, I never really know
When you're coming in strong
But you waited too long
All the kicks in ribs
But they can really make you weak
And I'm coming back 'round
From a five-year rebound

Would you give me some time to grow up?
So you cut your teeth before I did
No one cares, be careful, kid

Be careful, kid (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
You're just a kid
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Be careful, kid
If you're ready or not, you're gonna get hit

Will you think how you think
Even though it does you harm?
And it harms me too
Another casualty of you

Would you give me one sign to go home?
So you done your time, you done your bit
You don't care, be careful, kid

Be careful, kid (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh), oh
You're just a kid
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Be careful, kid
If you're ready or not, you're gonna get hit

When you're looking at yourself, yeah, you're killing it
Leaving all your friends, picking up your shit (Oh)
Standing in the snow with a cigarette
Said you're gonna quit, but you never did (But you never did)
Make another show, is it over yet? (Oh)
You're working on yourself and you're killing it
If you're really in the wrong, then you're gonna get

Hit
