Dave Matthews Band

Funny the Way It Is

 

Lying in the park on a beautiful day

Sunshine in the grass and the children play

Sirens passing, fire engine red

Someone's house is burning down on a day like this

And evening comes, and we're hanging out

On the front step and a car goes by with the windows rolled down

And that war song is playing, "Why can't we be friends"

Someone is screaming crying in the apartment upstairs

 

Funny the way it is, if you think about it

Somebody's going hungry, someone else is eating out

Funny the way it is, not right or wrong

Somebody's heart is broken, it becomes your favorite song

 

The way your mouth feels in your lover's kiss

Like a pretty bird on a breeze, or water to a fish

The bomb blast brings the building crashing to the floor

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 underneath

It must have been much harder when there was no bridge, just water

Now the world is small, compared to how it used to be

With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars

 

Watch the sky, the jet plane 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 become your favorite song

Funny the way it is, if you think about it

One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out

 

Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing underneath

It must have been much harder when there was no bridge, just water

Now the world is small, compared to how it used to be

With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars
