How do you do it?
What's an average day like for you?
Check, check
Oh, ok
It's all in a day's work, I've said it before
The crime won't stop so I'm ready for war
Rescuing people: adults and children
Helping out the citizens, fighting off attackers
Before that, I apprehended two carjackers
Went to the bank just to make a deposit
And halted a robbery already in progress
So honest, so loyal; fiercely trusted
I serve and protect for the general public
Cat in a tree (Meow) climber on a mountain
Pulled a kid out the river 'cause I saw that he was drowning
School bus, hazards, it's down to the wire
The bus had a blowout; I helped changed the tire
Stopped a speeding train that was heading for a crash
Flying toward an orphanage sitting on the tracks (Woo woo!)
Wait, somebody placed an orphanage on the railroad tracks?
(Yeah, that's right)
You mean, physically removed the orphanage
From its foundation, buried in the ground, and placed it on some railroad tracks?
And left it there?
(Uhh... well... uh... I gotta go)
It's all in a day's work, they just can't grasp
People don't see how much work I have
Crime's on the decline, after a steep rise
I've earned a reward, now for some me-time
Head to the bar, on the news and I rewind
Taking these shots and it's stinging like a beehive
Out to the dance floor, drink in my hand
I'm cool with the DJ and he's playing jam
Groove in my hips, rhythm on the brain
Smooth with a chick but she's no Lois Lane
Dance a few songs all nice and friendly
Go to take a sip and my drink is empty
Should I keep dancing? Maybe even score?
Feeling pretty good; I could go for one more (Bartender!)
Need another round, time to refill
Jerks at the bar and they're hating on my skills
Did you hear that BS about the orphanage on the train tracks?
Int eighty is such a liar.
(You shut your mouth. int eighty is a great man. He's a hero!)
Are you president of his fan club or something?
I mean the guy is obviously full of himself
(I'll give you a president of the fan club. Right in your face!)
Turn off the treadmill, you're running your mouth
He wouldn't shut down so I'm punching him out
Quick change the deal 'cause this ain't for real
Forget brass knuckles; my skin's made of steel
Temper is boiling the fire erods
Feeling crass, shatter glass, strike a match and explode
Fury in a rage, out the cage like an animal
Whoops we're in a bar and the alcohol is flammable
Fire everywhere, and everyone's escaping
But I knocked a couple out so I guess I better save them
Smoke so thick it's like breathing exhaust fumes
Gotta find a bathroom for switching up costumes
Outfit's changed and I'm back in the fray
With 80 on my chest so I'm saving the day
(Oh my God, is he alright? What's he have to say?)
He's got 3rd degree burns, but I think he'll be ok, little punk
I'm here reporting live from the scene
Where our inebriated super hero, int eighty
Has lashed out physically at patrons
Sent the bar up in flames
And knocked an elderly woman unconscious
While making his exit
Firemen and EMTs are on the scene
Back to you, Jon

Line by Line Meaning
I understand your point of view letting me go
I grasp your rationale for releasing me from your life
But I thought you had more faith
But, I expected a lot more belief from you
Everything I've done for you
All of my actions taken for you
You made the mistakes and now you throw this in my face
You made the errors and now you use this against me
And I have worked so hard for you all of this time and you cast me aside
I put in so much effort for you all this while, and you discard me
I understand your point of view
I comprehend your perspective
But I can't seem to get my head around
However, I'm unable to comprehend
All the things that I feel good about always seem to disappear
All the things that make me feel happy constantly vanish
And every time I think I've got this all worked out
Every time I think I've figured it all out
Something chews me up and spits me out
Something swallows me and then throws me back up
But there's nothing left to fear
But, I have nothing more to dread
I'm better alone my dear
Being solo is better, my beloved
You couldn't pick a better time to give me the news
You chose the worst point in time to break the news to me
Why don't you kick me when I'm down?
Why not hurt me when I am already down?
I'd always believed in you
I always had faith in you
Defended your name but you have not been true
Supported your reputation, but you were not honest
I gave you so much of my life I've compromised and you tell me goodbye
I sacrificed so much of my life for you, but you bid me farewell
You couldn't pick a better time
You really couldn't have chosen a better time
I know I really should thank you for setting me free
I realize that I should thank you for releasing me
It's really amazing the changes I'm starting to feel
I'm amazed at the changes that I'm starting to sense
It's not gonna be long till I'm fit and strong
It won't be long until I am healthy and strong
Deliverance helped me heal still I wonder if you ever wish you still had me
I regained my health through redemption, although I often wonder if you desire for me to return to your life
Will I ever get my head around
Will I ever be able to comprehend
All the things that I feel good about that always seem to disappear
All the things that give me joy and vanish instantly
When every time I think I've got this all worked out
When I think I have everything figured out
Something chews me up and spits me out
Something swallows me and then throws me back up
No No No
No, no, no
And every time I think I've got this figured out
Whenever I think I have everything sorted
Something screws me up and drags me down
Something messes up everything and pulls me down
I'm better alone my dear
I will be better off alone, my love
