[Dave Matthews Band - Funny the way it is - live in new york city lyrics]
Lying in the park on a beautiful day
Sunshine in the grass and the children play
Sirens passing, fire engine red
Someone's house is burning down on
A day like this
The evening comes and we're hanging out
On the front step and a car goes
By with the windows rolled down
And that War song is playing
"Why Can't We Be Friends?"
Someone is screaming and crying
In the apartment upstairs
Funny the way it is and if you think about it
Somebody's going hungry and someone
Else is eating out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody's heart is broken and it
Becomes your favorite song
The way your mouth feels in your lover's kiss
Like a pretty bird on the breeze
Or water to a fish
But a bomb blast brings the
Building crashing to the floor
Hear the laughter while the children play war
Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks ten miles to school
Another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier's last breath
His baby's being born
Standing on a bridge
Watch the water passing underneath
It must have been much harder
When there was no bridge, just water
Now the world is small compared to
How it used to be
With mountains and oceans and winters
And rivers and stars
Watch the sky
A jet plane so far out of my reach
Is there someone up there looking down on me?
A boy chase a bird, so close, but every time
He'll never catch her
But he can't stop trying
Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks ten miles to school
Another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier's last breath
His baby's being born
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody's broken heart becomes
Your favorite song
Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks ten miles to school
Another's dropping out

Standing on a bridge
Watch the water passing underneath
It must have been much harder
When there was no bridge, just water
Now the world is small compared to
How it used to be
With mountains and oceans and winters
And rivers and stars
Sunshine in the grass and the children play
Sirens passing, fire engine red
Someone's house is burning down on
A day like this
The evening comes and we're hanging out
On the front step and a car goes
By with the windows rolled down
And that War song is playing
