The Lyrics
For all you klutzes out there...
Not many things go my way the first time
In fact I can see that a lot
But I know all those times a was kicked in the balls brought me here
And where was I before the day that I had broken both my legs
I break something everyday
And I know
That I am
I am
I am the luckiest
What if I'd been born 50 years before now
In a house that was not child proof
Maybe I'd be admitted to the nearest ER
Would I know?
And for a long part of life I'd see nothing but a white
nurse's coat
And I know
That I am
I am
I am the luckiest
I'm in more pain than I have ever found a way to say to you
Next door there's this cute girl whose room is all padded
And one day she broke out of that room
And my life, it changed for those couple of days she was out
I'm sorry I know she had schizophrenia and all
But she knew
And I knew
That I am
I am
I am the luckiest
In fact I can see that a lot
But I know all those times a was kicked in the balls brought me here
And where was I before the day that I had broken both my legs
I break something everyday
And I know
That I am
I am
I am the luckiest
What if I'd been born 50 years before now
In a house that was not child proof
Maybe I'd be admitted to the nearest ER
Would I know?
And for a long part of life I'd see nothing but a white
nurse's coat
And I know
That I am
I am
I am the luckiest
I'm in more pain than I have ever found a way to say to you
Next door there's this cute girl whose room is all padded
And one day she broke out of that room
And my life, it changed for those couple of days she was out
I'm sorry I know she had schizophrenia and all
But she knew
And I knew
That I am
I am
I am the luckiest
