I ain't got no car And I've got one pair of jeans They've been stretched too far And now they're weak at the seams I can't say what's next And I got nothin' up my sleeve But I don't lose my head Cause it ain't really up to me And I'm doing just fine I'm always landing on my feet In the nic of time And by the skin of my teeth I ain't gonna stress Cause the worst ain't happened yet Somethings watching over me Like Sweet Serendipity Sweet Serendipity I don't ask for a lot No nothing more than I need Because I love what I got Don't need to play the lottery I just want to be strong At the end of the road I don't want to hold on I want the strength to let go And I'm doing just fine I'm always landing on my feet In the nic of time And by the skin of my teeth I ain't gonna stress Cause the worst ain't happened yet Somethings watching over me Like Sweet Serendipity Sweet Serendipity And what will be will be In the nic of time And by the skin of my teeth I ain't gonna stress Cause the worst ain't happened yet Somethings watching over me Like Sweet Serendipity Sweet Serendipity Like Sweet Serendipity Don't look fate can only find you You can't choose for something to surprise you Set sail without a destination Just see where the wind will take you You never know when you're gonna fall But I'm not worried No I'm not worried And I'm doing just fine I'm always landing on my feet In the nic of time And by the skin of my teeth I ain't gonna stress Cause the worst ain't happened yet Somethings watching over me Like Sweet Serendipity Sweet Serendipity And I'm doing just fine I'm always landing on my feet In the nic of time And by the skin of my teeth I ain't gonna stress Cause the worst ain't happened yet Somethings watching over me Like Sweet Serendipity Sweet Serendipity Sweet Serendipity Don't look fate can only find you You can't choose for something to surprise you Set sail without a destination Sweet, sweet Sweet, sweet Sweet Serendipity Sweet, sweet Sweet, sweet Sweet Serendipity I don't know Sweet Serendipity
