Siren’s 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 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, 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 (Riff) The way your mouth feels in your lovers kiss Like a pretty bird on a breeze or water to a fish A bomb blast brings a building crashing to the floor You can hear the laughter, while the children play (war) Funny the way it is, if you think about it One kid walks 10 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 (Riff) Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me It must’ve been much harder when there was no bridge, just water Now the world is small. Remember how it used to be, With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars? Solo com base (várias vezes) Watch the sky, the jet planes, so far out of my reach Is there someone up there looking down on me? Boy chase a bird, so close but every time He’ll never catch her, but he can’t stop trying Solo com base (várias vezes) Funny the way it is, if you think about it One kid walks 10 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 A kid walks 10 miles to school, another’s dropping out. (Riff) Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me It must’ve been much harder when there was no bridge, just water Now the world is small. Remember how it used to be, With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars?
