Lyrics

I am your undisputed king of bad directions

The speaker sees themselves as consistently providing inaccurate directions.


We rarely made it to the place I knew we'd shine

They often didn't reach the potential they believed they had.


I cannot read straight lines

The speaker struggles with following straightforward paths or guidelines.


I misinterpret signs at crucial times

They frequently misinterpret important signs or signals.


But here we are...

Despite their shortcomings, they find themselves in a certain situation.


Once in a while I get it right I'm due sarcasm

Occasionally, the speaker manages to be correct but anticipates sarcasm due to their usual inaccuracy.


Once in a while some hindsight will show me where I am

At times, hindsight helps the speaker understand their current position.


I am your all time faulty social carburator

The speaker acknowledges being consistently socially awkward or inappropriate.


Depending on the climate I sputter, spurt, or stall

Depending on circumstances, the speaker's behavior varies, sometimes faltering or stalling.


My way of building walls,

The speaker's method of self-protection involves creating barriers.


I build'em way too tall, screening calls

They create excessive barriers, notably avoiding communication.


'Cause here we are

Despite their tendencies, the speaker finds themselves in a specific situation.


Once in a while I get it right I'm due sarcasm

Occasionally, the speaker manages to be accurate but expects ridicule due to their usual errors.


Once in a while some hindsight will show me where I...

Reflecting on the past sometimes clarifies the speaker's current position.


If chemistry were currency,

If emotional connection were valuable, the other person could leave due to the speaker's inadequacies.


you'd have enough to walk out on me

The person they're addressing has enough emotional reasons to leave.


You'd have enough to walk out on me

Reiterating that the person could leave because of the speaker's emotional limitations.


Once in a while, it's only once in a while

The rare occurrences of being accurate are infrequent.


Once in a while I get it right I'm due sarcasm

Despite usual errors, occasionally the speaker is correct but expects mockery.


Once in a while some hindsight will show me where I am

Occasional retrospection helps the speaker understand their current circumstances.


Once in a while I get it right I'm due sarcasm

Despite usual errors, occasionally the speaker is correct but anticipates ridicule.


Once in a while some hindsight will show me where I am

Reflecting on the past occasionally provides clarity about the speaker's current situation.


show me were I am, show me where I am

Seeking clarity or understanding about their current position.
