Here we go again
Same old story, same old picture, same old lecture
I wish we could let it be
Instead of inciting a riot in all our words of wisdom
It's such an easy fight, It's such an easy fight
When you're too busy bein' right
And I'm too busy bein' happy
You're too busy bein' right
We're slippin' away, until there's nothing left to fight for
Slippin' away, and we're both too busy bein' right

Crackin' jokes, givin' opinions not requested
I try to clear my head
But all I can focus on is a sounding board that never seems to lessen

When I'm too busy bein' right
And you're too busy bein' happy
I'm too busy bein' right
We're slippin' away, until there's nothing left to fight for
Slippin' away, and we're both too busy bein'
Bein' right ain't bein' beautiful
It's just another way to show there's something wrong with everything you know
And though you're simply irresistible
I just can stand the fight
We're too busy bein' right
We should be busy bein' happy
We're too busy bein' right
Far too busy to be happy
We're too busy bein' right
We should be busy bein' happy
We're too busy bein' right
We're slippin' away, until there's nothing left to fight for
Slippin' away, and we're both too busy bein'
I'm too busy, you're too busy, we're just too busy
I'm too busy, you're too busy, we're just too busy
And it's about time we start bein'
