When a truck pops a tire
Do you get another truck
Or do you put on the spare
And say aw shucks
Face full of silver fur
The decades passed in such a blur
Outlived mom by 50 years
These days my vision
Ain’t so clear
When a truck pops a tire
Do you get another truck
Or do you put on the spare
And say aw shucks
My busted big toe
Led to serious FOMO
I try to accept my regrets
And the rest let go
When a truck pops a tire
Do you get another truck
Or do you put on the spare
And say aw shucks
When doing gets hard
Just being goes far
Sitting and feeling
Absorbing new healing
When a truck pops a tire
Do you get another truck
Or do you put on the spare
And say aw shucks
Knowin’ it’ll hold with just a little luck
Will I get where I’m goin’?
Naw, I don’t give a fuck
Life gets upended
People pretendin’
Tryin’ hard to fit in
Is soul deadening
When a truck pops a tire
Do you get another truck
Or do you put on the spare
And say aw shucks
Youth spends its shiny coin
Age kicks you in the groin
Time cannot be traded
Hard and sharp
Goes soft and faded
When a truck pops a tire
Do you get another truck
Or do you put on the spare
And say aw shucks
