The Duct Tape Song

You could fix a busted tail light
You can patch a leaky tire
Mend the tear on the easy chair
Or snuff a sparkin’ wire

Holding up the rearview mirror
And if my boots should come apart
Duct Tape fixes everything, except a broken heart

If your britches start to rip
A little tape will hold ‘em tight
It’s holding life together
Keeping up the Christmas lights

Steadied up the picnic table
Fixed your mama’s Cuisinart
Duct tape fixes everything, except a broken heart
Duct tape fixes everything, except a broken heart

You said we’d always stick together
I thought of you as more than a friend
And now I see our bond is frayed and weathered
And now I see my role is at an end

When the cooler lid broke
Fixed it so my beer stays cold
If the plumbing starts to leak
Silver tape’s as good as gold

It’s a holding up your picture
Like a sticky work of art
Duct tape fixes everything, except a broken heart
Duct tape fixes everything, except a broken heart
