Don't know how it got away from me Don't know how I let things go, you see Don't know why it took a sudden turn Didn't seem to be a big concern
And everything is all too much Hot and bothered, yet cool to the touch And everyone is world's apart It must have been this way right from the start
When there's nothing here to save the day Then we have to say There's a reason for it When there's nothing left for us to do You're left without a clue There's a reason for it
Don't know how it got away from me Don't know how I let things go, you see Don't know why it took a sudden turn Didn't seem to be a big concern
And everyone is all too well All well-adjusted people, can't you tell And everything is all too fast Just add water, nothing's build to last
When your colleagues can't recall your name Time and time again There's a reason for it When your name's the butt of every joke You're just about to croak There's a reason for it And everyone is world's apart It must have been this way right from the start
When there's nothing here to save the day Then we have to say There's a reason for it When there's nothing left for us to do You're left without a clue There's a reason for it When there's nothing here to save the day Then we have to say There's a reason for it When there's nothing here to save the day Then we have to say There's a reason for it There's a reason for it... There's a reason for it... There's a reason for it...
