Songtexte Tough Luck - Hello Emerson

I've been better but i'm fine
Roughed up but alright
Not much else to say
I can't remember anyway
Did susan really stay the night

Lighten up
That's a joke round here
We're all a little slower
Than we were last year
But my head's on straight
With a velcro brace
And my heart is more midwestern
Than the look on my face

I've seen worse things in life
But all that was online
And every time you speak
You just keep saying i'm sorry
And every time we brush it aside

Brighten up
All your family's here
It's just a dress rehearsal
For your hospice years
And now we'll know
How to help you go
But no one's going nowhere
Til we're taking you home

Still every time you speak
You just keep saying i'm sorry
And every time we brush it aside

Who cares
You're alive my dear
And we're more like a family
Than we've been in years
You're worse for wear
So don't take the stairs
Cause we're not taking chances
No we're keeping you here

Tough luck
You're stuck my dear
Living the remainder
Of your middle-aged years

And the surgeons say
It's your lucky day

So half a year of rehab
You'll be in the clear
