Ive been thinking about
What you said last night
And for all your fine words
You still dont have it right
Cause thats the way that it is
And you wont ever change
You can scream at me
But the powers that be
Wont ever hear your voice
Cause theyre lost
In their own importance
No, theyll never hear your voice
Cause thats the way that it is
And you wont ever change it
Ive heard all your stories
Of how the few can be strong
And how youll fight to the end
Just to prove me wrong
Cause thats the way that you are
And you wont ever change it
But dont come cryin to me
If your fanciful schemes
Dont turn out like you planned
Cause youre chasin
After something
That keeps slippin
Through your hand
Thats the way that it is
And you wont change it
