Well, I got a good friend who's got a good life
|
He's got two pretty children and a real nice wife
|
Yet he never seems quite satisfied
|
I said, "I know what's on your mind
|
But you better think about it before you cross that line
|
The grass ain't always greener on the other side"
|
|
Then what, what you gonna do
|
When the new wears off and the old shines through
|
And it ain't really love and it ain't really lust
|
You ain't anybody any body's gonna trust
|
Then what, where you gonna turn
|
When you can't turn back for the bridges you burn
|
And fate can't wait to kick you in the butt, then what?
|
Oh then what?
|
|
Well, I ain't saying that looking's a crime
|
Well, I've done my share from time to time
|
It don't mean that you gotta take that leap
|
When you're standin' on the brink
|
Before you jump you gotta step back and think
|
There's price for every promise you don't keep
|
|
Then what, what you gonna do
|
When the new wears off and the old shines through
|
And it ain't really love and it ain't really lust
|
You ain't anybody, any body's gonna trust?
|
Then what, where you gonna turn
|
When you can't turn back for the bridges you burn
|
And fate can't wait to kick you in the butt, then what?
|
Oh, then what?
|
|
Do what you want, do what you wish
|
It's your life but remember this
|
There's bound to be some consequences
|
Sneaking under other fences
|
|
Then what, what you gonna do
|
When the new wears off and the old shines through
|
And it ain't really love and it ain't really lust
|
You ain't anybody any body's gonna trust
|
Then what, where you gonna turn
|
When you can't turn back for the bridges you burn
|
And fate can't wait to kick you in the butt, then what?
|
Oh, then what?

Then What?
