Speaking of luck   I'm against all the odds not even you   No, not even you   No, not even God   Could convince me that I'm not a fraud   Well they tell me to get it together   It's either my head or it's the weather   But suddenly it's so very clear   I've got to get the hell out of here   I'm skipping town   Won't see me around      Oh I never said that I would stay   Through shorter nights and longest days   Oh I never said that I would stay   I'm laughing at you as I drive away   I never said that I would stay   The shorter nights and the longer days   Oh I never said that I would stay      This funeral moon is setting soon   It's falling fast and I am too   Don't follow me without thinking it through   I'm always out before I'm down   Got to wonder why you kept me around   No need to worry now   I've tangled my ties   Now I'm skipping town   I'm skipping town   Won't see me around      Oh I never said that I would stay   Through shorter nights and longest days   Oh I never said that I would stay   I'm laughing at you as I drive away   I never said that I would stay   The shorter nights and the longer days   Oh I never said that I would stay      I'm seeing it I'm losing it   I'm feeling my faith fall through the cracks   Though I was told to say my prayers   I lied   I never want it back   And if you think I've been mislead   Please take my soul and not my head   For the last two years I've traveled the wrong track   I never said that I would want to stay      Oh I never said that I would stay   I'm laughing at you as I drive away   I never said that I would stay   The shorter nights and the longer days   Oh I never said that I would stay      I'm skipping town   Won't see me around
