Its A Pity

Intro: verse 1 It's a pity the things you say about me It's a pity what you say about yourself It's a pity that we can't talk this over It's a pity that we can't work this out It's a pity the way that men treat women It's a pity the way men treat themselves It's a pity the walls we build between us It's a pity we build them higher still It's a pity the way you treat your husband It's a pity the way you treat your wife It's a pity the way we treat our children It's a pity to waste a single life Instrumental: verse 2 Once we thought we were Once when we were young Maybe we've wasted all the good years Or maybe the best are yet to come Now I have nothing left to offer And so I offer you this song And maybe the chance for a reunion And maybe a chance to get along And maybe a chance to live together And maybe a chance to get along
