lyrics

Sometimes I find myself in quite a jam
But if you look at it different you can see what I can
Taking off your glasses to read it just like you should
I can surely tell that you're not feeling too good
Don't try to tell me, don't try to make me feel bad
Cause all that you've been doing, is making yourself feel sad

Hammer that nail, beat it into your wall
I can tell you your painting will not fall
Hammer that nail, beat it as hard as you can
And maybe it'll help sometimes

Not too long after you start pushing it down
You'll find that it feels like you world's turning around
Don't make a mistake and think that you're all done
You forgot to drive that nail in it's not your only one
Don't try to tell me, don't try to make me feel bad
Cause a nail without a hammer is all you ever had

Hammer that nail, beat it into your wall
I can tell you your painting will not fall
Hammer that nail, beat it as hard as you can
And maybe it'll help sometimes

Sometimes I find myself in quite a jam
But if you look at it different you can see what I can
Taking off your glasses to read it just like you should
I can surely tell that you're not feeling too good
Don't try to tell me, don't try to make me feel bad
Cause a nail without a hammer is all you ever had

Hammer that nail, beat it into your wall
I can tell you your painting will not fall
Hammer that nail, beat it as hard as you can
And maybe it'll help sometimes
