Anthem of Why

Yeah, yeah

Yeah-yeah, yeah

Joe lives with his folks at home

Smokes little plants he grows

Cool for a kid but today is the big three-oh

It seems all of his hopes and dreams

Got lost in habitual fiends

Now he is crying tears of what could have been

He is saying, why, oh why did my life passed by?

Could it be that all this time sayin' why you shoulda said how

Thirty candles you are blowin'

None of which deserve a light

The only music you've been playin'

Is the anthem of why

Always dreamin', never doin'

So they never did take flight

Still the music that you're playin'

Is the anthem of why

(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh) Oh, oh

(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh) Yeah, eh eh, do, do-do-do

Stacey dreamt of becoming a pop queen

Suddenly when she turned fifteen, everything changed

She found out she had one on the way

And so she, took all the posters of Britney

Mariah, Beyonce and Whitney

And with her dreams she threw them all away

She was saying, why, oh why if not for that night?

Could it be that all this time sayin' why you shoulda said how?

All the hopin', all the wishin'

Girl you traded for a night

And the music that you're playin'

Is the anthem of why

Now your feelin', all your dreamin'

Was just a waste of time

So the song that you're singin'

Is the anthem of why

Always saying, why, oh why did my life passed by?

Could it be that all this time sayin' why you shoulda said how?

All the hopin', all the prayin'

Know they never should have died

But they faded when you traded

How for the anthem of why

You gotta dream it, gotta feel it

If you ever wanna fly

Never sing it, never play it

It's the anthem of why

It's the anthem of why, yeah, do, do, do-do
