[Verse 1] Came to a fork, it waved at me One path yawned, said “pick me, please” Tried to choose but I sneezed instead Woke up riding a loaf of bread [Pre-Chorus] I had a plan for half a sec Then it fell behind my neck ⸻ [Chorus] I meant to go left, I think I did But the road just winked and flipped its lid Now I’m here where the signs all hum And the sidewalks chew their gum I don’t know, I never know But the wrong way’s where I go ⸻ [Verse 2] Asked a cat which way was right It sold me socks and vanished mid-sentence Took a step and the sky said “no” Turned itself into Jell-O [Pre-Chorus] I was close to figuring it out Then the clouds began to shout ⸻ [Chorus] I meant to go left, I think I did But the road just winked and flipped its lid Now I’m here where the clocks all sing And the pigeons wear a ring I don’t know, I never know But the wrong way’s where I go ⸻ [Verse 3] Found a door in a puddle’s grin Knocked once, got politely swallowed in Tried to leave but the floor said “stay” Then it packed my thoughts away ⸻ [Bridge] Maybe straight is just pretend Maybe roads just like to bend Every “wait, I’ll choose in time” Gets rerouted mid-thought rhyme ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I don’t pick, I just begin Then I’m somewhere else again ⸻ [Chorus] I meant to go left, I think I did But the road just winked and flipped its lid Now I’m here where the signs all grin And the map folds back within I don’t know, I never know But the wrong way’s where I go [Chorus] I meant to go left, I think I did But the road just winked and flipped its lid Now I’m here where the signs all grin And the map folds back within I don’t know, I never know But the wrong way’s where I go
