If evergreens were to loose their leaves Then who'd there be to blame Was it dumb luck Or a power up above And why'd we give a damn anyway? Why oh why, do we live this way? Why oh why, do we live this way? If young love's supposed to be like pups Then why do we let it run away We tie it up, look away and we play dumb And find a different tree to bark up Why oh why, do we live this way? Why oh why, do we live this way? I don't like to think about it It keeps me up at night 'Cause it seems as if the sky is falling With no one left to save the day If dinosaurs weren't half baked carnivores Then would they have run away And do we think that we're so much smarter now That we're running out, running out of time to save Why oh why, do we live this way? Why oh why, do we live this way? I don't like to think about it It keeps me up at night 'Cause we're on seven different roller coasters Crashing towards the same mistake The same mistake oh ho, oh oh ho ho The same mistake oh ho, shalalalalala The same mistake oh hoo, hoo hoo hoo hoo The mistake oh ho, yeah yeah
