lyrics

Sometimes you might get drunk before the sun goes down
Worse yet, drunk off somebody else's beer
Or maybe you forgot that lady had a boyfriend
And you asked her out to dinner without fear
You can't always say the right thing
And you can't always do it either
Often times I think you'll find that you do neither

Cause a mammal's a mammal
A human's an animal even if we can wear hats
An ache is an ache, in the heart or the face
And you can't fill the space with your cats
It's hard to get by when you try and you try
And they're lockin' you up in a cell
But the thought means the most, even when you're a ghost
Someone will remember you well

Oh, everybody wants a piece of the corporate pie
Everybody wants to feel love before they die
But nobody knows what's out there beyond the sky
No, not even Apple
Though heaven knows they try
On TV it's great if you can do it when you're 60
But it's better if you can do it when you're 6
Good for you if you can do it when you're healthy
But it's a miracle if you can do it when you're sick

Oh the world can be such a cruel place
For someone who's just opening their eyes
But they say that with time it gets better
So go ahead and give it a few more good tries

Cause a mammal's a mammal
A human's an animal even if we can wear hats
An ache is an ache, in the heart or the face
And you can't fill the space with your cats
It's hard to get by when you try and you try
And they're lockin' you up in a cell
But the thought means the most, even when you're a ghost
Someone will remember you well
