The Way Things Are lyrics

I wouldn¡¯t know what to do with another chance
If you gave it to me
I couldn¡¯t take the embrace of a real romance
It¡¯d race right through me
I¡¯m much better off the way things are
Much much better off, better by far, by far
I wouldn¡¯t know what to say to a gentle voice
It¡¯d roll right past me
And if you chalk it up you¡¯ll see I don¡¯t really have a choice
So don¡¯t even ask me
I¡¯m much better off, the way things are
Much much better off, better by far
So keep on calling me names, keep on, keep on
And I¡¯ll keep kicking the crap till it¡¯s gone
If you keep on killing, you could get me to settle
And as soon as I settle, I bet I¡¯ll be
Able to move on
How can I fight, when we¡¯re on the same side
How can I fight beside you
So keep on calling me names, keep on, keep on
And I¡¯ll keep kicking the crap till it¡¯s gone
If you keep on killing, you could get me to settle
And as soon as I settle, I bet I¡¯ll be
Able to move on
So keep on calling me names, keep on, keep on
And I¡¯ll keep kicking the crap till it¡¯s gone
If you keep on killing, you could get me to settle
And as soon as I settle, I bet I¡¯ll be
Able to move on
