View From the Bridge Songtext
von Chris Knox

I know I′m often quite misunderstood
I'm seen to do bad when I know I′ve done good
It just happens that way


People who should know me better agree
That there's something down deep that is weird about me
Actually I'm dull and average like you
A sperm met an egg and together they grew
Biology made me what I am today
Environment helped in its normal sweet way

Let′s go to the bridge and then drown

I try to sing of the truth that I see
But my poor addled tongue gets the better of me
So hear what I say with a bucket of salt
If you don′t take precautions it's not my damn fault
I′ve got a feeling you'll all misconstrue
The gist of this song by the time I get through
Well who gives a shit when it′s all down to dust
You know when it's me that it′s words you can trust
