Never give an inch, that's what I say, son   When it's too tough for everybody else it is just right for me   Now, my lips are bleedin' from the selfish things that I've done   And my heart, it lies at the bottom of the ocean      Sometimes a great notion      Wanted to make love to my girl in the backseat of my car   So, I took her to the drive-in picture show   So, I filled her up with lies and a strong love potion   Now I'm sittin' here watchin' the movie alone      Sometimes a great notion      Sometimes the best laid plans have been known to go astray   Then you bet, you better put your seatbelt on   Just like your worst headache, well, a bad day don't go away   And you hit the ground runnin' against your emotions      Sometimes a great notion   Sometimes a great notion
