Lyrics Pretty Angry (for J. Sheehan) - Blues Traveler
I
wish
I
drank
tequila
I
wish
I
stayed
up
late
But
lately
when
the
Sandman
comes,
you
know
I
just
can't
wait
No,
lately
I
can't
wait
And
we
packed
up
all
your
boxes,
it's
all
been
hauled
away
I
never
stare
at
walls
so
bare
'cause
something
always
stays
Yeah
something
ever
stays
And
I
wanna
shout
from
my
guitar,
"Come
out,
come
out,
wherever
you
are"
The
joke
is
over,
open
your
eyes
A
heart
like
yours,
it
never
dies
And
I
found
your
keys
behind
your
chair
I
still
can
see
you
sitting
there
This
isn't
funny;
don't
fool
around
You
let
me
go...
You
let
me
down
And
I
guess
I'm
still
pretty
angry
and
I
don't
want
to
be
I
don't
know
which
was
the
bigger
waste
of
time,
missing
you
or
wishing,
instead
it
was
me
I
wish
I
walked
on
water
Pulling
rabbits
from
my
sleeve
Guessing
cards
and
saving
everyone
I
wish
I
still
believed
Oh
I
wish
that
I
believed
That
I
could
also
channel
voices
That
I've
endured
the
burning
blade
That
I
could
make
some
of
your
choices
I
wish
I
weren't
afraid
of
those
choices
that
you've
made
Like
I
could
give
you
what
you
need
(Run
all
your
races)
So
ollie,
ollie
oxen
free
The
game
is
up
and
I
give
in
(And
be
what
you're
gonna
be)
So
show
yourself
so
that
you
can
win
Come
claim
your
prize
and
I
don't
care
(And
let
some
of
us
love
you)
I
still
can
see
you
standing
there
How
could
you
leave,
how
could
you
lie?
(And
set
thy
anger
free)
You
cut
me
off
in
mid-reply
And
I
guess
I'm
still
pretty
angry
and
I
don't
want
to
be
I
don't
know
which
was
the
bigger
waste
of
time,
missing
you
or
wishing,
instead,
it
was
me
(Run
all
your
races)
The
will
to
win,
the
urge
to
race,
I
still
can
see
it
on
your
face
(And
be
what
you're
gonna
be)
Thought
I'd
keep
up
but
only
crashed,
I
wasn't
built
to
move
that
fast
(And
let
some
of
us
love
you)
Thought
I
could
match
you
stride
for
stride
but
I
was
on
the
other
side
(And
set
thy
anger
free)
And
holding
onto
the
safety
rail
with
knuckles
white,
complexion
pale
(Control
my
contradictions)
A
cloud
of
dust
and
you
were
gone
(In
the
beginning
there
was
you
and
me)
Thought
I
would
catch
you
later
on
(And
allow
that
my
labours
thrive)
I
limped
behind,
your
race
was
won
(I
would
have
brushed
my
world
aside)
But
were
you
racing
or
on
the
run?
(Rather
than
say
goodbye)
(And
grant
me
please
the
answer)
How
you
enjoyed,
you
loved
to
drive
(I
would
have
brushed
my
world
aside)
And
I'm
destroyed...
(I
don't
know
why
I'm
still...)
'cause
I'm
alive,
'cause
I'm
alive
And
I
guess
I'm
still
pretty
angry
and
I
don't
want
to
be
I
don't
know
which
was
the
bigger
waste
of
time,
missing
you
or
wishing,
instead,
it
was
me
And
I
guess
I'm
still
pretty
angry
and
I
don't
want
to
be
I
don't
know
which
was
the
bigger
waste
of
time,
missing
you
