Funny The Way It Is Lyrics

Lying in the park,
On a beautiful day.
Sunshine in the grass,
And the children play.
Sirens passin,
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 goes 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 her mouth feels in a lover's kiss.
Like a pretty bird on the breeze,
Or water to a fish.
The bomb blast brings a 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 ten miles to school,
Another's droppin' 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.Dave Matthews Band And Dave Matthews - Funny The Way It Is - http://motolyrics.com/dave-matthews-band-and-dave-matthews/funny-the-way-it-is-lyrics.html
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.

There's the sky,
The jet plane so far out of my reach.
Is there someone up there looking down on me?
A boy chase a bird,
So close but every time,
He never catch her,
But he can't stop trying.

Funny the way it is.
If you think about it
One kid walks ten miles to school,
Another's droppin' 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.
One kid walks ten miles to school,
Another's droppin' 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.
