Limits lyrics - Barenaked Ladies

Today, is not the day

To get it done, or not to get it done

Today, I heard you say

That maybe it's OK

If everything looks grey

Hold on to your armrest

Don't be alarmed I'm gonna do my best

Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this

Once in a while I exceed the posted limits

Did you hear?

Was there a cheer?

Did it still make a sound, though I was not around?

Despite the tears, we made it here

But maybe that's the fear

Did it seem insincere?

Hold on to your armrest

Don't be alarmed I'm gonna do my best

Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this

Once in a while I exceed the posted limits

You do your best to deal with everything life throws

But diving in blind headfirst is a great way to break your nose

Everybody says, "everybody knows"

But knowing won't amount to much when pushing comes to blows

Hold on to your armrest

Don't be alarmed I'm gonna do my best

Cause it's a long haul and I'm in this

Once in a while I exceed the posted limits
