lyrics

Dog eat dog, Man eat man
Nothing left for breakfast
Rock ‘n’ Roll, Country gold
All roads lead to Memphis
Everybody knows

Glass half full, Glass half drunk
Either way, it’s a headache
Neon lights, city-street fights
Someone call a medic
Everybody knows
That’s just the way things go

Oh, though I try to change
Chromosomes, yeah, they’re to blame
Or DNA or chocolate cake
I don’t know

Day is dimming now
Night sits on my furrowed brow
I realize I like just what I likes
Doesn’t everybody?

Rich get rich, Poor stay poor
Middleclass resents it
Grab some power, seize the hour
In the end, we all just rent it
Everybody knows
That’s just the way things go.

Oh, though I try to change
Chromosomes, yeah, they’re to blame
Or DNA or chocolate cake
I don’t know

Day is dimming now
Night sits on my furrowed brow
I realize I like just what I likes
Doesn’t everybody?

Love revoked
Hope don’t float
Swear off all relations
Then summer smiles, heart beguiled
Friends with all creation
Everybody knows, a fool or gameshow host,
That’s just the way things go
