Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm on the back porch flyin' a Texas banner
Starin' starlight, speakin' that country grammar
While the front page argue nothin' but the chatter
Nobody ask me what you think about the matters
Nobody ask me what we doin' in the shadows
Well, pardon me
[PreChorus]
I believe we could do one more better than the game that's already been won
Tomorrow, sleepin' with one eye open 'cause of deals that are already done
[Chorus]
I say, somebody pay the piper
And they tip him alright, ooh
It might just be the lightning that I'm sippin'
But I agree that I'm right, oh
Somebody pay the piper
Count that money but twice
('Cause you know it's true)
No turnin' hands hands of time back, no, no
No more turnin' out lights, ooh
Nobody asked me nothin' (Rats)
[Verse 2]
Ooh, pardon me
Loose laws and trouble may find you (Nobody ask me nothin')
Antiquated, pay no mind to (Well, pardon me)
May truer lines help guide you (Nobody ask me nothin')
And unopened doors invite you (Ooh, well, pardon me)
Tin soldiers shimmer silent
World will turn or tire itself out
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm on the back porch with my friends, takin' chances
'Til some polite words start wrestlin' answers
Cures will come and go 'til the sun advances
Nobody asked me what you think about the matters
Nobody asked me, you think you could do it better
Well, pardon me
[PreChorus]
I believe we could do one more better than the game that's already been won
Tomorrow, sleepin' with one eye open 'cause of deals that are already done
[Chorus]
I say, somebody pay the piper
And they tip him alright, ooh
It might just be the lightning that I'm sippin'
But I agree that I'm right, oh
Somebody pay the piper
Count that money but twice
('Cause you know it's true)
No turnin' hands hands of time back, no, no
No more turnin' out lights, ooh
Nobody asked me nothin' (Rats)
[Outro]
Uh, what do I know? Uh, huh
Nobody ask me nothin' (Rats)
I was 'bout to say nothin'
What do I know?
What do I know?
Nobody asked me nothin'
