Trouble Waiting To Happen Lyrics - Warren Zevon

written by Warren Zevon and J. D. Souther Zevon Music Inc. BMI 

I woke up this morning and fell out of bed 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Should've quit while I was ahead 

Trouble waiting to happen 

I turned on the news to the Third World War 

Opened up the paper to World War IV 

Just when I thought it was safe to be bored 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Trouble waiting to happen

The mailman brought me the Rolling Stone 

Trouble waiting to happen 

It said I was living at home alone 

Trouble waiting to happen 

I read things I didn't know I'd done 

It sounded like alot of fun 

I guess I've been bad or something 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Teardrops ready to start 

Trouble waiting to happen to my heart

This just ain't gonna be my day 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Things just ain't gonna go my way 

Trouble waiting to happen 

My day was over by a quarter to ten 

I climbed right back into bed again 

I'd write this down if I could hold a pen 

I might get better but I don't know when 

So I'm gonna wait right here 'til then 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Trouble waiting to happen 

Teardrops ready to fall 

Trouble waiting to happen to us all
