Barenaked Ladies - Bringing It Home Lyrics

It's not a Cinderella story
It's not an overnight success
Where everybody expects unlikely outcomes
And I'm just somewhere in the mess

It's not an underdog sensation
Or a movie of the week
Anybody involved from the beginning
Knows it's not just a lucky streak
I'm bringin' it home

Forever after
It's in our bones hey
Stay at the house 'cause we're bringin'g it home (oh)

We raised the rafters
We made Rome (hey)
We bagged it up and we're bringin' it home

It's not a simple right of passage
Where you just follow every step
Somebody took every single roadmap
And there just wasn't any left

So we found our own direction
Made our way to everyone
And now we look back on every misstep
And wonder how we got it done
I'm bringin' it home

Forever after
It's in our bones (hey)
Stay at the house 'cause we're bringin'g it home (oh)

We raised the rafters
We made Rome (hey)
We bagged it up and we're bringin' it home

I'm the quickest of the fast draws
Stick it making slack jaws
Last of the last straws
Slippin' til the ice thaws
Swimming when it's ice cold
Brimmin' with the big bowl
Flavor never waiver
Put the life in the lifesaver

Never ever let down
Good to get down
Freaky like Antiquey-d?
I'm gonna make you my clown
All's well that ends well
Glad like in gladwell
Days after days inn
I put my 10k's in (yep)

Forever after
It's in our bones, (hey)
Stay at the house 'cause we're bringin' it home (oh)

We raised the rafters
We made Rome (hey)
We bagged it up and we're bringin' it home (oh)

Forever after
It's in our bones (hey)
Stay at the house 'cause we're bringin' it home (oh)

We raised the rafters
We made Rome (hey)
We bagged it up and we're bringin' it home

We bagged it up and we're bringin' it home
