He said, "son That's just the way it is Some things will never change That's just the way it is Ah, but don't you believe them" Oh yeah Well, they passed a law in '64 To give those who ain't got a little more But it only goes so far Because the law don't change another's mind When all it sees at the hiring time Is the line on the color bar, no, no That's just the way it is And some things will never change That's just the way it is That's just the way it is, it is, it is, it is Oversett til norsk

Lying in the park on a beautiful day Sunshine in the grass, and the children play Siren's passing, fire engine red Someone's house is burning down on a day like this The evening comes and we're hanging out On the front step and a car rolls by with the windows rolled down And that war song is playing, why can't we be friends? Someone is screaming and crying in the apartment upstairs Funny the way it is, if you think about it Somebody's going hungry and someone else is eating out Funny the way it is, not right or wrong Somebody's heart is broken and it becomes your favorite song The way your mouth feels in your lovers kiss Like a pretty bird on a breeze or water to a fish A bomb blast brings a building crashing to the floor You hear the laughter while the children play war Funny the way it is, if you think about it One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out Funny the way it is, not right or wrong On a soldier's last breath his baby's being born Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me It must've been much harder when there was no bridge just water Now the world is small, remember how it used to be With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars Watch the sky, the jet planes, so far out of my reach Is there someone up there looking down on me? Boy chase a bird, so close but every time He'll never catch her, but he can't stop trying Funny the way it is, if you think about it One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out Funny the way it is, not right or wrong On a soldier's last breath his baby's being born Funny the way it is, not right or wrong Somebody's broken heart becomes your favorite song Funny the way it is, if you think about it A kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me It must've been much harder when there was no bridge just water Now the world is small, remember how it used to be With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars
