I have a wisdom tooth
|
Inside my crowded face
|
I have a friend who is a born-again
|
Found his savior's grace
|
I was born before my father
|
And my children before me
|
We are born and born again
|
Like the waves of the sea
|
That's the way it's always been
|
And that's how I want it to be
|
|
Nothing but good news
|
There is a frog in South America
|
Whose venom is a cure
|
For all the suffering that mankind
|
Must endure
|
More powerful than morphine
|
And soothing as the rain
|
A frog in South America
|
Has the antidote for pain
|
That's the way it's always been
|
And that's the way I like it
|
|
Some people never say no
|
Some people never complain
|
Some folks have no idea
|
And others will never explain
|
That's the way it's always been
|
That's the way I like it
|
And that's how I want it to be
|
That's the way it's always been
|
That's the way I like it
|
And that's how I want it to be
|
|
If I could play all the memories
|
In the neck of my guitar
|
I'd write a song called
|
"Seٶorita with a necklace of tears"
|
and every tear a sin I'd committed
|
oh these many years
|
That's who I was
|
That's the way it's always been
|
|
Some people always want more
|
Some people are what they lack
|
Some folks open the door
|
Walk away and never look back
|
I don't want to be a judge
|
And I don't want to be a jury
|
I know who I am
|
Lord knows who I will be
|
That's the way it's always been
|
That's the way I like it
|
And that's how I want it to be
|
That's the way it's always been
|
That's the way I like it
|
And that's how I want it to be
|
