Lyrics
It seems, throughout history
When anyone says, "Yes, I can"
There's always a face in the crowd
To test him out
While he stands proud
They ask him why
"Time's the clown that brings you peace of mind"
He says, "The luxuries of happiness"
Oh, why do you say
We can't go on this way?
Why do you say
We can't go on this way?
Why do you say it?
Why do you say it?
Why?
I'll play your fool, ridiculous
Inside your eyes
A wise man cries
And the ringmaster struts about
A fragile dime
He cracks a smile
It's all worthwhile
So why do you say
We can't go on this way?
Why do you say
We can't go on this way?
Why do you say it?
Oh, why do you say it?
Why?
Why do you say
We can't go on this way?
Oh, why
Why do you say it?
We can't go on this way?
Oh, this way
Why do you say
We can't go on this way?
Oh, why
Why do you say it?
