Mighty Mighty Bosstones - All Things Considered Lyrics
There is this older guyThat comes around from time to timeWe're sure that he fought in the warThe war in VietnamMost of what he tells usNo one's verifiedHe swears that he was thereThe day that Brendan Behan diedHe also claims he trainedA kid named Cassius ClayAnd cost Goldwater the electionOn election dayIf he was still with us todayThen he would introduceUs to his closest friendThe one and only Lenny BruceThe truth is what he's been throughAnd what he's had to doWhat he's seen, and what he's doneAll things consideredWhat he's telling usIsn't hurting anyoneWe knew it's trueHe's short a fewCheck out the deck, it's lightSaid he wrote the entire soundtrackFor A Hard Day's NightOn Peyton PlacePlayed second baseHe says but he regretsThe stadium was SheaThe team the New York MetsThe truth is what he's been throughAnd what he's had to doWhat he's seen, and what he's doneAll things consideredWhat he's telling usIsn't hurting anyoneAll things consideredHe's not bitterHe's not meanNo, he's not doneAll things consideredWhat he's telling usIsn't hurting anyoneThere is this older guyThat comes around from time to timeWe're sure that he fought in the warThe war in VietnamMost of what he tells usNo one's verifiedHe swears he was thereThe day that Brendan Behan diedThe truth is what he's been throughAnd what he's had to doWhat he's seen, and what he's doneAll things consideredWhat he's telling usIsn't hurting anyoneAll things consideredHe's not bitterHe's not meanNo, he's not doneAll things consideredWhat he's telling usIsn't hurting anyoneEvery now and thenWe hear our song
