Oh, a whole new way of looking at things The way you react to phone rings The way it feels when you just let it flow Sometimes I wonder just how it could be To take care of it before we see it off the rails I think that you should know You never cease to amaze me You keep me from going crazy And that's one thing I know for sure Sometimes I see just how it all will be To take care of it it's so easy, the first straw And this I know for sure The first straw so small it seemed impossible The next straw vanished like shooting stars that fall The last straw there's no reason for getting there at all, yeah No reason to take it there at all, yeah The last straw can land in your mix Your best day could be apocalypse Nobody paid attention to the first straw It seems the last one is all we ever saw The first straws a metaphor I pick up myself It tells me something by showing me something else I think that you should know The first straw so small it seemed impossible The next straw vanished like shooting stars that fall The last straw there's no reason for getting there at all, yeah No reason to take it there at all, yeah Everyone reacts when it gets to the weight of breaking the back I won't let that be us 'cause the loss I'd never get past, yeah First straw so small it seemed impossible Next straw vanished like shooting stars that fall Last straw there's no reason for getting there at all, yeah The first straw so small it seemed impossible The next straw vanished like shooting stars that fall The last straw there's no reason for getting there at all, yeah
