You think you're going nowhere When you're walking down the street Acting like you just don't care When life could be so sweet Why you wanna be like that As if there's nothing new You're not fooling no one You're not even fooling you
So walk a little slower And open up your eyes Sometimes it's so hard to see The good things passing by There may never be a sign No flashing neon light Telling you to make your move Or when the time is right
[Chorus] Why not...Take a crazy chance Why not...Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So why not, why not
You always dress in yellow When you want to dress in gold Instead of listening to your heart You do just what you're told You keep waiting where you are For what you'll never know Let's just get into your car And go, baby, go
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh, I could be the one for you Oh, yeah...Maybe yes, maybe no It could be the thing to do All I'm saying is you got to let me know
You'll never get to heaven Or even to L.A. If you don't believe there's a way
Why not...take a star from the sky Why not...spread your wings and fly It might take a little And it might take a lot But, why not? Why not?
