Limits Songtext

von Barenaked Ladies

Today is not the day to get it done
Or not to get it done
Today I heard you say maybe it's okay
And everything looks great

Hold on to your armrest, don't be alarmed
I'm gonna do my best
'Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this
And once in a while I exceed the posted limits

Holding on, holding on, holding on

Did you hear? Was there a cheer?
Did it still make a sound though I was not around?
Despite the tears we made it here
But maybe that's the fear
Did it seem insincere?

Hold on to your armrest, don't be alarmed
I'm gonna do my best
'Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this
And once in a while I exceed the posted limits

Hold on to your armrest, don't be alarmed
I'm gonna do my best
'Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this
And once in a while I exceed the posted limits

Holding on, holding on, holding on

You do your best to deal with everything life throws
But diving in blind, headfirst is a great way to break your nose
Everybody says that everybody knows
Knowing won't amount to much when pushing comes to blows

Hold on to your armrest, don't be alarmed
I'm gonna do my best
'Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this
And once in a while I exceed the posted limits

Hold on to your armrest, don't be alarmed
I'm gonna do my best
'Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this
And once in a while I exceed the posted limits
