Mike Mains & The Branches
Played It Safe
[Verse 1]
Played it safe and went to school
You did what mother and father taught you to
Used another man’s one-up tools
Taught you nothing
[Verse 2]
Out along the great divide
You keep the other boys awake all night
Spread out as thin as cracking ice
Taught you nothing
Taught you nothing
(Woo!)
[Verse 3]
Maniac, am I best to try?
The boat we were in had been capsized
From the giant wave of all the lies
They taught me something
No, but it taught you nothing
Oh!
