One Wrong Turn

I knew a guy, let's call him JeffHe had a wife that up and leftLast Thursday night, she saw his textsAnd she was mortifiedIt wasn't right, though he confessedThat, just one time, he called his exShe didn't buy it or accept when Jeff apologizedNow he's all aloneSomething funny that I've learnedIs just how quickly fate can turnHow one simple mistake can take you out (Out, out, out)Something funny that I've foundIs just how quickly worlds burn downMake one wrong turn and you can't turn around ('Round, 'round, 'round)One wrong turn can burn things to the groundI knew a girl, let's call hеr JessShe took a drive to buy a drеssBut missed the light as it turned red and ran into trafficShe took a right, if she turned leftShe'd be alive, would not be deadShe'd have arrived, but now, insteadThe end is tragicSomething funny that I've learnedIs just how quickly fate can turnHow one simple mistake can take you out (Out, out, out)Something funny that I've foundIs just how quickly worlds burn downMake one wrong turn and you can't turn around ('Round, 'round, 'round)One wrong turn can burn things to the groundBut the thing you didn't see comin'Is that Jeff was Jess' husbandAnd the ex he had to call is no longer into boys at allIt's all one big misunderstandingLike dominos crash-landingOnce the first one falls, they all come tumbling downAnd now he's all aloneSomething funny that I've learnedIs just how quickly fate can turnHow one simple mistake can take you out (Out, out, out)Something funny that I've foundIs just how quickly worlds burn downMake one wrong turn and you can't turn around ('Round, 'round, 'round)One wrong turn can burn things to the ground
