A good idea at the time

Well the smoke's all cleared, the bodies all counted
And the first on the list looks a lot like me
And wounds get licked, retreats get mounted
When you're blind to everything
That everybody else can see

But it seemed like a good
A good idea at the time...at the time...

Mistakes get made and things get broken
And picking up the pieces
Never was a strength of mine
And eyes shut tight
And a heart wide open
It's just a bad combination
And trouble's comin' down the line

But it seemed like a good
A good idea at the time...at the time

Ain't no wishful thinking
Ain't no best laid plans
Ain't no way around it tonight...

But it seemed like a good
A good idea at the time...at the time
But it seemed like a good
A good idea at the time...at the time
