Grandpa Built A Castle Cake Lyrics

And I jumped the gun
Way too many times
To count that every time I did
I let myself down
And it got to the point where
That was OK by me
But then I got to the point where
I should probably start to think
About myself
Before I determine
What's so hazardous
For everyone else

Hold On, wait up,
Wait a minute, so I can
Stop listening, hold this
Before this gets all out of hand
And I'm not trying to
I just know that I'm going to
So when I come to my senses
Don't say that I didn't warn you

And I control myself worse than anyone
And that's probably most likely something
That I should work on
I hold on more than anyone would ever know
I've got this mental crypt that doesn't know
How to let anything go

Hold On, wait up,
Wait a minute, so I can
Stop listening, hold this
Before this gets all out of hand
And I'm not trying to
I just know that I'm going to
So when I come to my senses
Don't say that I didn't warn you

Wait up, take this as your warning
I've never been to good at verbalizing warnings
All my life everybody tried to warn me
But this has warned me

Let me out, cut me down
And you've widdled away
At my heart, from the start
But not in a bad way
Let me out, cut me down, from the middle
Little by little
Little by little
