Ernest Borgnine Lyrics

John Grant – Ernest Borgnine Lyrics

(Verse)
How much is enough? That's a really tough question
You ought to give it some thought sooner or later
Got off of the hooch and the crack and skipped the smack down--
But then you had to find yourself a lower low

Doc ain't lookin' at me; says I got the disease
Now what did you expect? You spent your life on your knees
It was never too late. Tell me--what were you afraid of?
Do the numbers in your head or get out your calculator

(Chorus)
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do

(Verse)
Sorry that you think you had it rough in the first world
You ought to get out a map sooner than later
Knowledge has turned into a trap; you have to slow down
Get out of your head and spend less time alone

But you never learn; you get your labyrinth on
You lay awake at night and think that you are getting old
You don't need to panic now; you got time to do that later
You're the Jack who's chasing Danny outside in the snow

(Chorus) x2
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do

(Bridge)
I got to meet him once, and he was really, really cool
And when I think about everything's that he's been through
I wish he'd call me on the phone and take my ass to school

(Chorus) x2
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do
I wonder what Ernie Borgnine would do

(Bridge)
I got to meet him once, and he was really, really cool
And when I think about everything's that he's been through
I wish he'd call me on the phone and take my ass to school
