On My Way Lyrics - On My Way - Ben Kweller

I wanna kill this man but he turned around and ran 

I'll kill him with karate that I learned in Japan 

He wouldn't see my face, I wouldn't leave a trace 

I wouldn't use a bullet, 'cause a bullet's a disgrace 

Aw mom, I never thought 

That I was a murdering man 

But tonight I'm on my way 

Tonight I'm on my way 

There's this drawer that I know in a house up the road 

That's full of things that are easily sold 

When they go out of town, I could go and snoop around 

And make myself rich off the things that I found 

Aw mom, I never thought 

That I was a stealing man 

But tonight I'm on my way 

Tonight I'm on my way 

I was sitting on the bleacher and staring at the speaker and 

Reading his lips but I could not understand 

So I opened up my ears and clearly I could hear 

This detailed story all about a grain of sand 

Aw mom, I always dreamt 

Of being a good listener 

So tonight I'm on my way 

Tonight I'm on my way 

There's this kid you gotta meet, he lives across the street 

He's got spirit and heart, we're ten years apart 

He is up for anything, he can hang with anyone 

He still likes the things we used to think were fun 

Aw mom, I never thought that I could have a friend 

But tonight I'm on my way, tonight I'm on my way 

Oh tonight I'm on my way 

I'm in love with someone who's as pretty as a flower 

Her life gives me power, so I'm buying her a ring 

She makes hats with her hands, she is such an artist 

I'm her biggest fan and I'm teaching her to sing 

Aw mom, I never thought that I could love no one 

But tonight I'm on my way, tonight I'm on my way 

Oh tonight I'm on my way
