Learn How to Fall #2 Songtext
von The Replacements

Stand without a pail
In a box with your hands in a well
Little toes in the cold
Stick ′em all on, don't worry what you′re told
Pass without a loss
No Easter Bunny and there's no Santa Claus

First you must learn how to fail
Before you're allowed anything real
First you must learn how to fail

You′re growing up much too fast
Soon you′ll be dating and bored of sit laughing
Pulling pigtails
Or whatever they'll be wearing in a ten-year ale
Stand without a pail
Playing with me ′til I'm too old to see


First you must learn how to fail
Before you′re allowed to do anything real
Yeah, first you must learn how to fail
Before you're allowed to do anything real

First you must learn how to fail
Before they′ll let you do anything real
Yeah, first you must learn how to fail
Before you're allowed to do anything real

Take your time now
First you must learn how to fail
How to fail, hey
How to fail
How to fail
How to fail
How to fail
Don't worry, baby
You′ll do just fine
