Friday night, about 1 AM
Oh, here we go again
You're wonderin' what's new
And you're wonderin' what I'm doing
And I'm wonderin' why I even picked up

When you're gonna get it through your head
Give it up, put this to bed
Don't wanna try again
Don't wanna be friends
Let me say it so you understand

If you were a truck, I'd let you rust
If you were a shoe, I'd step in mud
If you were a rose, I'd let you die
If you were a clock, I'm killing time
If you were a house, I'd burn it down
If you were a beer, I'd pour you out
If you were a mirror, I'd break the glass
If you were a fish, I'd throw you back

I don't wanna know how you've been
Or hear about your mom and them
I'm trying to paint a picture
Boy, you ain't a keeper
I don't know why it don't make sense

If you were a truck, I'd let you rust
If you were a shoe, I'd step in mud
If you were a rose, I'd let you die
If you were a clock, I'm killing time
If you were a house, I'd burn it down
If you were a beer, I'd pour you out
If you were a mirror, I'd break the glass
If you were a fish, I'd throw you back

To the river (throw him back)
To the lake (cut him loose)
Cut a line, leave you lyin' on the bank (ah, shoot)
Boy, I could do this all day
And never run out of ways to say

If you were lost, I'd hide the map
If you were gas, I'd light the match
And boy, if you were cash, you'd get some real payback

If you were a truck, I'd let you rust
If you were a shoe, I'd step in mud
If you were a rose, I'd let you die
If you were a clock, I'm killing time
If you were a house, I'd burn it down
If you were a beer, I'd pour you out
If you were a mirror, I'd break the glass
If you were a fish, I'd throw you back
I'd throw you back
I'd throw you back
Throw you back
