Navigating Life's Choices: It Can't Hurt by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Lyrics
You thought the idea was good, to hang around in my neighborhood
You thought it was a good idea to be in my neighborhood.
Thought it was a good idea, you even thought it might advance your career
You believed it might help your career.
Thought that! you thought that time was on your side
You thought that time was on your side.
And you! and you can go along for the ride
You can come along for the experience.
Thought you wouldn't go too far, your thoughts have got you where you are
Your thoughts led you to your current situation.
Never had a crystal ball, never promised you at all
No foresight or guarantees were given.
Never promised you a thing, I never knew what things would bring
No promises were made; the future was uncertain.
It can't hurt, It can't hurt, not gonna hurt you Doll!
The situation won't harm you.
It hasn't helped, it hasn't helped hasn't helped you At all!
Despite your belief, it hasn't helped you at all.
You believe that being where you've been was a way that you could walk right in
You thought your past experiences would open doors.
And you were sure that going where you've gone was a way that you could get up on
You were confident that your journey would lead to success.
Had to! you had to do what you had to do
You had to do what was necessary.
And you! bit off more than you could chew
You took on more than you could handle.
Open you're eyes and look at where you're at,
Reflect on your current situation.
Shut your mouth and swallow that
Accept the reality of the situation.
Never had a crystal ball, never promised you at all
No promises or predictions were made.
I never promised you a thing, never knew what things would bring
No assurances were given; the future is uncertain.
It can't hurt, it can't hurt, not gonna hurt you Doll!!
The current situation won't harm you.
It hasn't helped, it hasn't helped, has it helped you at all!
Despite your belief, it hasn't helped you at all.
I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried, I can't seem to get through.
The speaker tried but couldn't make a breakthrough.
Yo Dennis man, see if she'll listen to you.
The speaker suggests seeking advice from Dennis.
Ah it can't hurt, it can't hurt, not gonna hurt you Doll!
The situation won't harm you.
It doesn't help, it doesn't help, has it helped you At all?
Despite your belief, it hasn't helped you at all.
It can't hurt, no it can't hurt, no it can't hurt you Doll!
The situation won't harm you.
It doesn't help, it hasn't helped, It hasn't help you At all!
Despite your belief, it hasn't helped you at all.
