Mighty Mighty Bosstones Impression That I Get Lyrics

Have you ever been close to tragedy
Or been close to folks who have
Have you ever felt a pain so powerful
So heavy you collapse
(no, well, aah)

Ive never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if I could
It makes me wonder if
Ive never had to knock on wood
And Im glad I havent yet
Because Im sure it isnt good
Thats the impression that I get

Have you ever had the odds stacked up so high
You need a strength most dont possess
Or has it ever come down to do or die
Youve got to rise above the rest
(no, well, aah)

Ive never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if I could
It makes me wonder if
Ive never had to knock on wood
And Im glad I havent yet
Because Im sure it isnt good
Thats the impression that I get

Im not a coward,
Ive just never been tested
Id like to think that if I was,
I would pass
Look at the tested and think there but for the grace go
I might be a cowards,
Im afraid of what I might find out

never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if I could
It makes me wonder if
Ive never had to knock on wood
And Im glad I havent yet
Because Im sure it isnt good
Thats the impression that I get
