Great Lyrics

Lyin' in the parkOn a beautiful daySun shine in the grassAnd the children playSiren's passin'Fire engine's redSomeone's house is burning downOn a day like thisThe evening comes and we're hangin' outOn the front stepAnd a car goes by with the windows rolled downAnd that war song is playin "why can't we be friends?"Someone's screamin' and cryin' in the apartment upstairsFunny the way it isAnd if you think about itSomebody's goin' hungry And someone else is eatin' outFunny the way it isWhether right or wrongSomebody's heart is brokenAnd it becomes your favorite songThe way your mouth feels in a lover's kissLike a pretty bird on a breezeOr water to a fishBut a bomb blast brings the building crashin' to the floorHear the laughter while the children play warFunny the way it isAnd if you think about itOne kid walks 10 miles to schoolWhile another's droppin' outFunny the way it isNo matter right or wrongOn a soldier's last breathHis baby's being bornStandin' on a bridgeWatch the water passin' under meIt must have been much harder When there was no bridge just waterNow the world is smallRemember how it used to beWith mountain, and oceans, and winter's, and river's and starsWatch the sky the jetplanesSo far out of my reachIs there someone up there lookin' down on me?Boy chase a birdSo close but everytimeHe never catch herBut he can't stop tryingFunny the way it isAnd if you think about itOne kid walks 10 miles to schoolWhile another's droppin' outFunny the way it isNo matter right or wrongOn a soldier's last breathHis baby's being bornFunny the way it isNo matter right or wrongSomebody's broken heartAnd it becomes your favorite songFunny the way it isAnd if you think about itOne kid walks 10 miles to schoolWhile another's droppin' outStandin' on a bridgeWatch the water passin' under meIt must have been much harder When there was no bridge just waterNow the world is smallRemember how it used to beWith mountain, and oceans, and winter's, and river's and stars
