I've been there,
yeah once or twice or so.
I've been down that sorry ol' lane,
I've been there and back again.

Let me tell you what it's like,
to try to keep your skill sets sharp,
it's like trying with tooth picks and rubber bands,
trying to make a fine tuned harp!

Don't know what I'm talkin' 'bout?
Well frankly,
neither do I,
but let me tell you somethin'
it still ain't worth battin' an eye.

It's a simple little conundrum,
like spillin' good milk,
you made a mess and now,
you have to clean it all up yourself.

Learn from your mistakes,
because you waste time just to repeat it,
don't ever give up,
not since you've gotten this far,
because one you give up,
that's when you're truly defeated.

So carry on,
march through the valley of death,
for you shall fear no evil,
and you shall remain victorious,
even on your dying breath.

There and back again,
been there and done that for sure,
So I'll just shoot a quick little prayer, amen?
Cause going back is sickening,
I'm going to need a cure.
