Just As Well Lyrics

Well, here comes one from the depths of my skin
Itching for an accidental point to begin
The power of inertia yeah just busting to get out
To raise myself up in the corners of your mouth

There ain't no lines on the road to Hell
It's not much further as far as I can tell
Well, a shot from a cannon, yeah, this is where I fell
And I guess that's just as well

Yeah, lost in Pig Heaven now let me check the map
I'm told it's a pretty good problem to have
Well, that's a good question coming to a cross
Well, who the hell died and made me boss

There ain't no lines on the road to Hell
It's not much further as far as I can tell
It doesn't really fester so much as it swells
And I guess that's just as well

For the love of Pete
What are you getting at
Well, it's gonna get infected
You keep picking it like that

Well, my poor boots are on their last legs
Pretty soon I'll be walking on pegs
I'll know right away when we're in the right place
Cause I'll see it tense up the muscles of your face
There ain't no lines on the road to Hell
It's not that dark as far as I can tell
And he didn't really push me I kind of just fell
Well, I guess that's just as well
It's just as well

Just as well

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
