I’ll never wrestle an alligator or dangle from a bungee cord,
I’ll never slap a grizzly bear or try to swallow a sword,
I’ll never fly a kite in a storm or jump out of a plane for fun,
I’ll never admit that I love you or say that you’re the one,
I’ll never take risky risks with my life when I know it could end in a hearse,
Which is why I won’t let you be my everything, unless you say its so first.
