Ben Folds Five - regrets

I thought about sitting on the floor in second grade

I couldnt keep the pace

I thought I was the only one moving in slow motion

While the other kids knew something I did not

But if I acted like a clown

I thought it would get me through, it did

But that dont work no more

Youre not a kid no more

I thought Id do some travelling

Never did

Regrets, regrets

I thought about the hours wasted

Watching tv, drinking beer

I thought about the things I thought about

Until immobilized with fear

And all the great ideas I had

And how we just made fun

Of those who had the guts to try and fail

And then I ended up in jail

Regrets, regrets

... but just for a day

Seems the police had made a computer mistake

Said there must be thousands like me with the

Same name

Anyway, I thought about the things I settled for

Or never tried

I never visited my grandma even once

When she was sick before she died

So I dont blame you if you never come to see me

Here again

Regrets, regrets
