That's Just What You Are

Lyrics

In our endeavor we are never seeing eye to eye
 No guts to serve us so forever may we wave goodbye
 And you're always telling me that it's my turn to move
 When I wonder what could make the needle jump the groove
 I won't fall for the oldest trick in the book
 So don't sit there and think you're off of the hook
 By saying there is no use changing 'cause
 That's just what you are
 That's just what you are
 Acting steady always ready to defend your fears
 What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
 By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try
 Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy
 It's not like you would lose some critical piece
 If somehow you moved point A to point B
 Maintaining there is no point changing 'cause
 That's just what you are
 That's just what you are
 Now I could talk to you till I'm blue in the face
 But we still would arrive at the very same place
 With you running around and me out of the race
 ♪
 So maybe you're right, nobody can take
 Something older than time and hope you could make
 It better, that would be a mistake
 So take it just so far
 'Cause that's just what you are
 That's just what you are
 That's just what you are
 Acting steady always ready to defend your fears
 ♪
 What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
 
 You're like a sleepwalking man, it's a danger to wake you
 ♪
 Even when it is apparent where your actions will take you
 ♪
 That's just what you are
 And that's just what you are
 That's just what you are
 That's just what you are
