30,000 feet someone asks me across the aisle
Should the engine be this loud it was his time flyin’
Told him I already crashed once shouldn’t happen again
Now he’s huggin’ a little paper bag was it something I said

Finally got a date with Eileen from the Dairy Queen
Fanciest string of pearls I’d ever seen
Asked her is them things real boy I was impressed
Now I got two black eyes was it something I said

Everybody’s so damn sensitive
Runnin’ ‘round so argumentative
Starts out good but in the end
I get slapped upside the head
Was it something I said

Doin’ 65 in a 30 when I got stopped
Kinda’ just figured we were racin’ to the donut shop
Told him if he got there first there’d be nothin’ left
Now I’m the county jail was it somethin’ I said

Everybody’s so damn sensitive
Runnin’ ‘round so argumentative
Starts out good but in the end
I get slapped upside the head
Was it something I said

What’s wrong with saying you need to lose the mullet
Or take this job and shove it
You wouldn’t know class if it bit you in the ass
Only your face is funny
