Why do we have to go and face the same routine   And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real   Neurotic scene   I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah      Why does my girl tell me she's got to   Have her way   Out all night, come home to fight   What am I to say   I don't know, why do we take it each day      Life is what it is   Who wants to try not to believe   That's the way it is      Oh, oh   I don't know why what you feel inside   Days go on   Love is something that you just can't hide   If it's wrong   Then you'll want to know, you don't know why   I sing a song   And it helps me yet I'll get by      At times   Lost in time sometimes your mind unwinds   Sun does shine   But no pleasure from your beauty's mine   Like champagne wine   A bitter taste that's so refined   Life it's fine   You always pay for what's behind      Why do I have to go and face the same routine   And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real   Neurotic scene   I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah      Life is what it is   Who wants to try not to believe   That's the way it is
