The Upper Hand

No one cares or ever oversees

Through the years you learn that under these

Conditions you have got to overlook

Somethings you don't do by the book

An uppercut that somebody deserves

Under your skin and also on your nerves

The skin gets thick and the nerves get shot

Don't forget what you were taught

They're underhanded understand

You've got to get the upper hand

Under the circumstances though

Sometimes you've got to let it go

The upside up till now had not been found

Get over it somehow stay underground

What I dound out from being under there

Was never in a million years

Would I myself or anyone I knew

In any way have anything to do

With any of them now at any rate

And never underestimate

They're underhanded understand

You've got to get the upper hand

Under the circumstances though

Sometimes you've got to let it go

Understand that once you've got

The upper hand and they have not

Even the underhanded know

Sometimes you've got to let it go

On top of all of that what underlies

You don't have to apologize

No one's fault and no surprise

Life goes on when death defies

The only other thing I'd like to add

Have the greatest time you've ever had

You're overwhelmed but don't forget

You still have not seen nothing yet

They're underhanded understand

You've got to get the upper hand

Under the circumstances though

Sometimes you've got to let it go

Understand that once you've got

The upper hand and they have not

Even the underhanded know

Sometimes you've got to let it go
