It Doesn't Have To Be That Way Lyrics

It Doesn't Have To Be That Way Lyrics

They always said that you cannot change your mind
Do it once and you're defined, do it twice and you're divine
It doesn't have to be that way, ok

They always said that you need to have a plan
Doesn't matter, any plan, any plan they'll understand
It doesn't have to be that way, ok

I may be wrong, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
No choked-up song, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
No singalong, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
I'll pay for it

They always said you must stay between the lines
Be easily defined, or you're wasting all your time
It doesn't have to be that way, ok

They always said that it has to be refined
Or you'll leave someone behind or the pages must be lined
It doesn't have to be that way, ok

I may be wrong, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
No choked-up song, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
No singalong, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
I'll pay for it

I'm no cucoo, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
I'm no baffoone, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
I'm not too schooled, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
I'll pay for it

They always said it must reflect your life
And incorporate your strife, maybe mentioning your wife
It doesn't have to be that way, ok

I may be wrong, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
No choked-down song, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
No singalong, I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it
I'll pay for it

How about a drink
It's been too long
Another drink
Ah well, so long
