Have you heard the news?
Bad things come in two's
But I never knew
'Bout the little things.
Every single day
Things get in my way.
Someone has to pay
For the little things.

And I'm through with the stalls
And I'm sick of my shoes
And the walking and the talking
It's got nothing to do with the final solution
It's a box full of tricks
And I'm through with repairs when there's nothing to fix
When there's nothing to fix (x2)
And it all comes down to you.

Let the headlines wait
Armies hesitate.
I can deal with fate
But not the little things.
Armageddon may
Arrive any day.
I can't get away
From the little things.

With a calamitous kiss and a
Bucket of tears I could
Look at the sunlight
And I'd feel no fear.
With a mountain of maybes
And some Icarus wings
And I'm all the delusions
And one little thing.
And that one little thing (x2)
And it all comes down to you.

Have you heard the news?
Bad things come in two's.
But I never knew
'Bout the little things
Every single day
Things get in my way.
Someone has to pay
For the little things.
