Consequences Lyrics
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Was it too late to call you?
Was I too drunk to know?
Do you ever feel like you fell off for about a year?
I'd like to have another go
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I haven't slept in about a week
I stay up thinking I will die
This time I'm blaming it on smoking
Tried it once, it wrecked my life
Or maybe it's your laugh
That keeps me up at night
I wish I tried more
Wish I tried more
Wish I tried
[Chorus]
Oh, what's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequencеs of my actions
"What time's the train start?"
She asks mе as I drawl
You're just so painfully punctual
I'm starting to get bored
I decorate my mind
The same beige as the walls
I'm yours, I'm yours, I'm yours
[Pre-Chorus]
Drink, I've had too much to think
Just tell me baby, is this seat taken now?
[Chorus]
What's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequences of my actions
[Bridge]
What's this?
What's this?
What's this?
What's this?
[Chorus]
What's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequences of my actions, now
What's this?
The consequences of my actions

Then, like in the recent disasters, we all make mistakes. Some of which involve getting drunk and calling ex-girlfriends. Others involve hiring rodents and primates to operate expensive passenger vehicles. We all must face the repercussions for this.
