| I’ve been thinking about
|
| What she said last night
|
| And for all your fine words
|
| You still don’t have it right
|
| 'Cause that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it
|
| You can scream at me but the powers that be
|
| Won’t ever hear your voice
|
| 'Cause they’re lost in their own importance
|
| No, they’ll never hear your voice
|
| 'Cause that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it
|
| Yes that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it
|
| I’ve heard all your stories
|
| Of how the few can be strong
|
| And how you’ll fight to the end
|
| Just to prove me wrong
|
| 'Cause that’s the way that you are
|
| Guess you’ll never change
|
| But don’t come cryin' to me
|
| If your fanciful schemes don’t turn out like you planned
|
| 'Cause you’re chasing after something
|
| That keeps slipping through your hand
|
| 'Cause that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it
|
| Yes that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it
|
| 'Cause that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it
|
| Yes that’s the way that it is
|
| And you won’t ever change it |
