lyrics

I broke my arm in kindergarten and then the same one again in 3rd grade
Both times I asked for a hot pink cast and everyone signed it and it was great
I made my teacher yell at me in the hallway
My recklessness had ruined the 4th grade play
I had broken my hand on a trampoline
They gave me a thumbs-up cast it was bright green

I played a Native American chief, she thought my cast was the only inaccuracy
I’m not trying to say she didn’t have her priorities straight
I just think that it’s lame that she really felt that way

So, break my bones if you want to, but I am way ahead of you
I am doing what I have to, to put me back together again

Then in my second week of high school I broke two bones in my foot.
I was running from a ghost in the living room
it was cold and dark on a night with a full moon
I never saw it again. I told people I broke it saving my best friend
Overall I think it was worth it, I got out of the entire football unit

Break my bones if you want to, but I am way ahead of you
I am doing what I have to, to put me back together again
