Nothing changes 'cause it's all the same   The world you gets, the one you give away   It all just happens again, way down the line      There is a chain that's never broken   You know the story, it's sad but true   An angry man gets drunk and beats his kids   Same old way his drunken father did   What comes around, well, it goes around      Nothing changes 'cause it's all the same   The world you gets, the one you give away   It all just happens again, way down the line      At 17 Shannon is pregnant   Young as her mom when she had her   Her kid is never gonna have a dad   Same old way that Shannon never had   What comes around, well, it goes around      Nothing changes cause it's all the same   The world you gets, the one you give away   It all just happens again, way down the line      And all the things you learn when you're a kid   You'll fuck up just like your parents did   It all just happens again, way down the line      And welfare moms have kids on welfare   And fat parents, they have fat kids too   You know it's never gonna end   The same old cycle's gonna start again   What comes around, well, it goes around      Nothing changes cause it's all the same   The world you gets, the one you give away   It all just happens again, way down the line      And all the things you learn when you're a kid   You'll fuck up just like your parents did   It all just happens again, way down the line
