My shoes stay wet and
my list stays long
my battery’s dead and
something’s wrong

my bag’s still heavy
and my hands stay full
the door’s still broken
so you gotta push before you pull

this is what you wanted 4x

so you better be careful, careful
careful what you wish for
cause you just might get it

so you better be careful, careful
careful what you wish for

the phone’s still ringing
the clock runs fast
we’re always late but
won’t be last

the sun’s still shining
we’ll get by
he needs reminding
and so do I

this is what you wanted 4x

so you better be careful, careful
careful what you wish for
cause you just might get it

so you better be careful, careful
careful what you wish for
cause you just might, you just might

so you better be careful, careful
(remember this is what you wanted)
be careful
be careful
(this is what you wanted)
what you wanted
