Careful what you ask for
Careful where you step
Careful with your wishes
Careful how you bet
Careful what you say
Careful what you don't
Careful if they will
Careful if they won't
In this house of cards
Damn my hands are shakin'
I've forgotten what we're makin'
In this house of cards
There's cracks in the foundation
I just wanna change the station
Careful with your skin
Careful with your bones
Careful with your time
And be careful with your tone
Careful in the end
Careful how you start
Careful with your head
And be careful with your heart
CHORUS
Careful with your family
Careful with your friends
Folks you saw today
You may never see again
