Lyrics

VERSE
Sometimes we don’t know when enough is enough
Life can be taxing; life can be tough
But when you’ve done a stupid that you can’t escape
Just don’t make it worse or a bigger mistake

First CHORUS
When you need to zag, stop ziggin’
After too much beer, stop swiggin’
For promises made, stop renegin’
And when you’re in a ditch, stop diggin’

VERSE
Boss man lookin’ down his nose at what you’ve done
From the look on his face, your nightmare has just begun
Now I don’t think you wanta be readin’ his mind
’Cause he ain’t gonna be payin’ you for any overtime

Second CHORUS
When the dinner’s over, stop piggin’
When the lake’s out of fish, stop jiggin’
When there’s no more frogs, stop giggin’
And when you’re in a ditch, stop diggin’

VERSE
I know you didn’t mean to make her so mad
But unless you’re gettin’ smarter, the future looks bad
She hasn’t yet decided on your ultimate fate
But I don’t think you really want to start a debate

Repeat First CHORUS/BRIDGE
If you’re supposed to be skinny, stop jigglin’
If you’re supposed to be still, stop wigglin’
You gotta learn not to make it any worse
You need to know how to hit reverse, uh huh

SOLO/Repeat FIRST CHORUS/TAG
Yeah, when you’re in a ditch, stop diggin’
Spoken: Aw, man…
(Alt. tag) Yeah, when life’s a bitch, stop bitchin’
Aw, man...
