All this built-up worry from never learning how to dance
Hopefully she won't ask
Then again, we're only 17 til tomorrow
Hold me fast and I'll hold your hand
Left my old home rushed; in such a hurry
Guess I had to find a better way
But I overshot and ended up in Nashville
Mind drifting but doing okay
And then came the day
Woah, shit happens
Yessiree bud, it do
Oh, shit happens
To me and to you
The day I found myself in the white room next to the bridge
Just an 18-year-old kid
Looking for someone new to dazzle with my expression
Looking for a love that won't quit
And so it did
Woah, shit happens
Yessiree bud, it do
Oh, shit happens
Diverting power from my heart unto my brain
Fleeting attempts to level out this crashing plane
As it falls into a dark room gathering dust
An antique bust through the window pane
Unknowingly on display
Woah, shit happens
Yessiree babe, it do
Oh, shit happens
Ruthlessly, it moves
Oh, shit happens
Yes indeed, it's true
Oh, shit happens
To me and to you
Woah, shit happens
You bet your fat ass it will
Oh, shit happens
Time to pay some bills
Stacks on stacks on
Stacks as high as the hills
I can't wait to tell you about it still
Confirm the f*cking kill
