Were Only People (And Theres Not Much Anyone Can Do About That)
People, were only people
Theres not much anyone can do, really do about that
But it hasnt stopped us yet
People, we know so little about ourselves
But just enough to wanna be nearly anybody else
How does that add up?
Oh, friends, all my friends
Oh, I hope youre somewhere smiling
Just know I think about you
More kindly than you and I have ever been
And Ill see you the next time around the bend
People, whats the deal?
Youve been hurt
And Ive been hurt
But what do we do now?
People , were only people
There aint a thing one person can ever change about that
Oh, friends, all my friends
Oh, I hope youre somewhere smiling
Just know I think about you
More kindly than you and I have ever been
And Ill see you the next time around the bend
I think the end of it all
May look a lot like the beginning
But passed around from hand to hand
Screaming for no particular reason
The company gets pretty thin
So we start to shed all our distinctions
So why not me?
Why not you?
Why not now ?
