Nothin' on the radio again

I pick up my guitar

I put it right back down

I don't know why I even try

And I can't think of anything to say

But then I never thought I'd write another song again

But here it is

I'm not gonna make it

I don't think I can take it

So I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead

Well it's been happenin' to me all my life

Well I swore I'd never make the same mistakes

But now I'm making different ones

And I can't seem to ever get things right

Well it just feels like I'm goin round in circles

And I'm goin round in circles

And I

I'm not gonna make it

I don't think I can take it

So I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead

And I'm not gonna make it

I don't think I can take it

So I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead

But it's too late

It's too late

I'm a whole body now

And it's too late

It's too late

I'm a whole body now

Well, I'm not gonna make it

I don't think I can take it

So I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead

And I said

I'm not gonna make it

I don't think I can take it

So I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead

But it's too late

It's too late

I'm a whole body now

And it's too late

It's too late

I'm a whole body now
