Intro

Verse 1
CWith his back against the FSan Francisco Ctraffic
On the Gbridges side that faces towards the Cjail
AmSetting out to Gjoin a demograpFhic,
He Choists his first leg F up over the Crail.
And a Cphone call's made, PoFlice cars show up Cquickly.
The Gsergeant slams his passenger Cdoor.
He says, AmHey son why dont Gyou talk through this Fwith me,
Just Ctell me what you're Fdoing it for. C
Chorus
Oh, its a Amlittle bit of everyCthing,
Its the Ammountains, Its the Emfog,
Its the Amnews at six oCclock,
Its the Gdeath of my first dog,
Its the Cangels up aboveF me,
Its the Csong that C/Bthey dont sing,Am
Its a Glittle bit of everything. C
Verse 2
An older man stands in a buffet line,
He is smiling and holding out his plate,
And the further he looks back into his timeline,
That hard road always had led him to today,
And making up for when his bright future had left him,
Making up for the fact that his only son is gone,
And letting everything out once, His server asks him,
Have you figured out yet, what it is you want?
Chorus
I want a Amlittle bit of everyCthing,
The Ambiscuits and the Embeans,
Whatever Amhelps me to forget aCbout
The things that Gbrought me to my knees,
So pile Con those mashed potatoesF,
And an Cextra C/Bchicken Amwing,
Im having a Glittle bit of everythingC.
Interlude
Verse 3
Somewhere a pretty girl is writing invitations,
To a wedding she has scheduled for the fall,
Her man says, Baby, can I make an observation?
You dont seem to be having any fun at all.
She said, You just worry about your groomsmen and your shirt-size,
And rest assured that this is making me feel good,
I think that love is so much easier than you realize,
If you can give yourself to someone, Then you should.
Chorus
Cause its a Amlittle bit of everyCthing,
The way you Amchoke, the way you Emache,
It is Amgetting up beCfore you,
So I can Gwatch you as you Gwake.
So on that Cday in late SepFtember,
Its not some Cstupid C/Blittle Amring,
Im giving a Glittle bit of everything. C
Chorus
Oh, its a Amlittle bit of everyCthing,
Its the Ammatador and the Embull,
Its the sugAmgested daily Cdosage,
It is the Gred moon when its Gfull.
All these Cpsychics and these Fdoctors,
They're all Cright and theyre all Amwrong,
like Ctrying to make out Fevery word,
When they should Csimply hum aAmlong,
It's not some Cmessage written Fin the dark,
Or some Ctruth that C/Bno one Amsees,
It's a Glittle bit of everything. C
