I overheard someone say, "I'm doing it for money."
And so she went to work, got her pay and went back home.
While the rest of us tries to get by.
She's a mother, of two.
A hard-working mother.
I once heard a guy say, "I'm doing it for love."
And so he went to his lover, and they made sweet love the whole night.
While the rest of us tries to get by.
He's a dreamer, a believer.
A rare one.
I thought I heard a friend once said, "I'm doing it for myself."
And so she went on to find herself. Got lost and found herself
And got lost again.
While the rest of us did too.
I once told myself, "I'm doing it."
And so I went on my way and did.
I tried. I failed.
Like the rest, again and again, I just try to get by.
If you look at life this way, why it's so boring.
