[ Featuring Robert Steel ]
We take this day, the way we play
The stencil of our lives
We have this way of loving pain
We hardly need to try
But just this once, to break the run,
Let's change it and say
"Not today, our typical way."
Could we abide if just one time
We stepped outside the game?
It's almost like we sell our souls
To keep things the same
Let's admit we'd probably die of shock
If we say
"Not today, our typical way."
That once-upon-another-day
If we had heard someone say this our way
Our typical way
We'd say, "There's just no way."
You say it takes a hard wind
To knock me to the ground
On the other hand, the slightest breeze
Will have you falling down
Bottom line, we're going through
Exactly the same
Let's walk away
From our typical ways
(Guitar!)
That once-upon-another-day
If we had heard someone say this our way
Our typical way
We'd say, "There's just no way."
Way too long on right and wrong
We're way beyond that show
The up and down and going 'round
It's all getting old
Cnd frankly, I don't have the strength
To do this today
Not this way
Our typical way
This is our typical way
This way, our typical way
Got to stop it today
We must find a new way
