It Can't Hurt

you thought the idea was good
to hang around in my neighborhood
thought it was a good idea
you even thought it might advance your career
thought that time was on your side
and you can go along for the ride
thought you wouldn’t go too far
your thoughts have got you where you are
I never had a crystal ball, never promised you at all
I never promised you a thing, I never knew what things would bring
It can’t hurt, It can’t hurt, not gonna hurt you at all
It hasn’t helped, it hasn’t helped, not gonna help you at all
you believe that being where you’ve been
and a way that you could walk right in and you wre sure that going where you’ve gone
was a way that you could get up on you had to do what you had to do and you bit off more than you could chew
open you’re eyes and look at where you’re at shut your mouth and swallow that
