lyrics

You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you
No matter how hard that you try
When the apple doesn't fall out of your eye
You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you

Hold up!
Wait a minute!
I need to know if you're really in it
Are you in it for real?
That just how I feel

You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you
No moment is so big or small
When the old backroads laugh in your hall
You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you
At all

Norm had secret cancer
And he was unrequited
And I thought some day I might get to shake his hand
But I understand "never meet your heroes"

You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you
We all have our personal hell
When the cages of light hang out of reach as well
You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you
And you never can tell

You'll never be prepared for what this world is gonna do to you
