The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - The Upper Hand lyrics

No one cares or ever oversees Through the years you learn that under these Conditions you have got to overlook Somethings you don't do by the book An uppercut that somebody deserves Under your skin and also on your nerves The skin gets thick and the nerves get shot Don't forget what you were taught They're underhanded understand You've got to get the upper hand Under the circumstances though Sometimes you've got to let it go The upside up till now had not been found Get over it somehow stay underground What I dound out from being under there Was never in a million years Would I myself or anyone I knew In any way have anything to do With any of them now at any rate And never underestimate They're underhanded understand You've got to get the upper hand Under the circumstances though Sometimes you've got to let it go Understand that once you've got The upper hand and they have not Even the underhanded know Sometimes you've got to let it go On top of all of that what underlies You don't have to apologize No one's fault and no surprise Life goes on when d**h defies The only other thing I'd like to add Have the greatest time you've ever had You're overwhelmed but don't forget You still have not seen nothing yet They're underhanded understand You've got to get the upper hand Under the circumstances though Sometimes you've got to let it go Understand that once you've got The upper hand and they have not Even the underhanded know Sometimes you've got to let it go
