shoulda read the fine print

I got headaches, eyes are dry and they hurt sometimes
should have went to a doctor to see if I was fine
trouble seeing words up close
going down the street speeding rapidly
couldn't see speedometer doing 50 in a 30
shoulda read the fine print

Trouble seeing words up close
At a restaurant thought the menus said ketchup
but read desserts
Aching eyes, eyestrain also ordered gluten
instead of  wheat grain
shoulda read the fine print

At my lawyer doin business
Tunnel vision guess I didn't see the paper
Signed my life away
Got in a bind now I itch
shoulda read the fine print

Drawn a will didn't read it well
Sign off! Left everything to Jezabel
Shoulda have read it better
Now I'm going steady with a black widow
Probyopia, I can't see good...
I told ya!
Guess, I could have squinted put the paper closer
Can't see with or without the glasses
shoulda read the fine print
