The Impression That I Get Lyrics

Artist: Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Album: Let's Face It

From the album Let's Face It

Have you ever been close to tragedy
Or been close to folks who have
Have you ever felt a pain so powerful
So heavy you collapse
I've never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if i could
It makes me wonder if
I've never had to knock on wood
And I'm glad i haven't yet
Because I'm sure it isn't good
that's the impression that I get
have you ever had the odds stacked up so high
You need a strength most don't possess
Or has it ever come down to do or die
You've got to rise above the rest
I've never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if i could
It makes me wonder if
I've never had to knock on wood
And I'm glad I haven't yet
Because I'm sure it isn't good
that's the impression that I get
I'm not a coward,
I've just never been tested
I'd like to think that if I was,
I would pass
Look at the tested and think there but for the grace go
I might be a cowards,
I'm afraid of what I might find out
I've never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if i could
It makes me wonder if
I've never had to knock on wood
And I'm glad i haven't yet
Because I'm sure it isn't good
That's the impression that I get

Ummm, these are wrong near the end. Or you're just missing the final version of the refrain:

I've never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if I could
It makes me wonder if I
Never had to, but I better knock on wood
Because I'm sure it isn't good
And I'm glad I haven't yet
That's the impression that I get

And that's how the song ends. Yeah, now I'm pretty sure it just wasn't added. Fix it?
