| Isn’t it a pity
|
| You don’t know what I’m talking about, yet
|
| But I will tell you soon
|
| It’s a pity
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| Isn’t it a shame
|
| Yes, how we break each other’s hearts
|
| And cause each other pain
|
| How we take each other’s love
|
| Without thinking anymore
|
| Forgetting to give back
|
| Forgetting to remember
|
| Just forgetting and no thank you
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| Some things take so long
|
| But how do I explain
|
| Why not too many people can see
|
| That we are all just the same
|
| We’re all guilty
|
| Because of all the tears
|
| Our eyes just can’t hope to see
|
| But I don’t think it’s applicable to me
|
| The beauty that surrounds them
|
| Child, isn’t it a pity
|
| How we break each other’s hearts
|
| And cause each other pain
|
| How we take each other’s love
|
| The most precious thing
|
| Without thinking anymore
|
| Forgetting to give back
|
| Forgetting to keep open our door
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| Some things take so long
|
| But how do I explain
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| Why not too many people
|
| Can see we’re all the same
|
| Because we cry so much
|
| Our eyes can’t, can’t hope to see
|
| That’s not quite true
|
| The beauty that surrounds them
|
| Maybe that’s why we cry
|
| God, isn’t it a pity
|
| Lord knows, it’s a pity
|
| Mankind has been so programmed
|
| That they don’t care about nothin'
|
| That has to do with care
|
| How we take each other’s love
|
| The most precious thing
|
| Without thinking anymore
|
| Forgetting to give back
|
| Forgetting to keep open the door
|
| But I understand some things take so long
|
| But how do I explain
|
| Why not too many people
|
| Can see we’re just the same
|
| And because of all their tears
|
| Their eyes can’t hope to see
|
| The beauty that surrounds them
|
| God, isn’t it a pity
|
| The beauty that surrounds them
|
| It’s a pity
|
| We take each other’s love
|
| Just take it for granted
|
| Without thinking anymore
|
| We give each other pain
|
| And we shut every door
|
| We take each other’s minds
|
| And we’re capable of take each other’s souls
|
| We do it every day
|
| Just to reach some financial goal
|
| Lord, isn’t it a pity, my God
|
| Isn’t it a pity, my God
|
| And so unnecessary
|
| Just a little time, a little care
|
| A little note written in the air
|
| Just the little thank you
|
| We just forget to give back
|
| 'Cause we’re moving too fast
|
| Moving too fast
|
| Forgetting to give back
|
| But some things take so long
|
| And I cannot explain
|
| The beauty that surrounds us
|
| And we don’t see it
|
| We think things are just the same
|
| We’ve been programmed that way
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| If you want to feel sorry
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| The beauty sets the beauty that surrounds us
|
| Because of all our tears
|
| Our eyes can’t hope to see
|
| Maybe one day, at least, I’ll see me
|
| And just concentrate on givin', givin', givin', givin'
|
| And 'til that day
|
| Mankind don’t stand a chance
|
| Don’t know nothin' about romance
|
| Everything is plastic
|
| Isn’t it a pity
|
| My God |
