[Verse 1]

People always surprisin', the things that they'll do

You think you got 'em figured out and they'll show you what you knew

At first they may seem rational, but wait a month or two

'Cause there's just no explainin' the things people do


[Verse 2]

I had to get away, I was losin' my interest

Instead of expandin' my world, I was just scannin' Pinterest

So I left all these people I thought that I knew

'Cause there's just no explainin' the things people do


[Verse 3]

I left for the road 'cause I needed the mileage

Brought what I owned 'cause I thought it was stylish

Well, I don't miss the folks that I just left behind me

'Cause there's places I'm goin', kinda doubt they will find me


[Verse 4]

I never really felt that my life was in danger

But a shot to the gut by the hands of a stranger

It started me thinkin' what I already knew

That there's just no explainin' the things people do


[Verse 5]

Well I found a new place quickly, I caught me a fast one

But the people 'round here are the same as the last one

So I guess I'll keep movin' and find a new crew

'Cause there's just no explainin' the things people do

There's just no explainin' the things people do
