It's 3:42 a.m., eyes blood shot
Yawning in my Honda in a Costco parking lot
Waiting on the door to unlock so I can clock in early
And stock the cooler 'til I swear I need back surgery
Wondering what the hell I'm doing with my life
Wishing I was still in bed with my wife
Scribbling lyrics on the side of a styrofoam cup
Do my kids need their dad to grow up or keep chasing a dream?
It ain't making no sense, no dollars
Am I a failure or a father?
Father, help, look at the felt on my effed up ceiling
Had to bum thumbtacks from my 9 and a half year old daughter Lela
Just to keep it from coming down
Kinda like my tears when I count
Lela's stars
The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my car
Lela's stars
The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my
It's just the roof of my car
Man, I wish this coffee had a little Maker's in it
11 bucks an hour, shit, that's less than 20 cents a minute
But, hey, it's a gig, and it's food in the refrigerator
It's time to get to work, but y'all, when I get off later
I'm gonna pick up this pen where I'm leaving off now
And get back to this song and show my children
How to never give up on something you love, something you want
Even when your check engine light is on
Nah, the future don't look bright but
It's like it's all going to be alright in the light of
Lela's stars
The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my car
Lela's stars
The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my
It's just the roof of my car
Pink and purple, green and blue, poor man's decorations
All I saw was a bunch of thumbtacks, she saw constellations
It's gonna be tough to get rid of this ride
When the world gets my gift
'Cause I don't think they make new cars that come with
Lela's stars
The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my car
Lela's stars
The sky ain't fallin', it's just the roof of my
It's just the roof of my car
It's just the roof of my car
