[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Standing in line, marking time
Waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by
As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes
Just for fun, he says, "Get a job"
[Chorus]
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Ha, but don't you believe them
[Verse 2]
They say, "Hey, little boy, you can't go where the others go
'Cause you don't look like they do"
Said, "Hey, old man, how can you stand to think that way?
Did you really think about it before you made the rules?"
He said, "Son
[Chorus]
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is"
Ha, but don't you believe them
Mmm, yeah
[Verse 1]
Standing in line, marking time
Waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by
As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes
Just for fun, he says, "Get a job"
[Chorus]
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Ha, but don't you believe them
[Verse 2]
They say, "Hey, little boy, you can't go where the others go
'Cause you don't look like they do"
Said, "Hey, old man, how can you stand to think that way?

[Chorus]
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is"
Ha, but don't you believe them
Mmm, yeah
