Turn it around and around
Go ahead and stretch the truth
Maybe I would have bought the whole thing
If I was a little more naive or still in my youth
But talk is cheap
And you used up your two cents worth
And if you've nothing better to say
Don't say anything at all; nobody gets hurt
And you know what I'm talking about
It happens time and again
If you're looking for a way out
It's the same way you came in
The same way you came in
Sing it again and again
That one line we sing in tune
We can shake our heads in disbelief
We can consult with the planets or howl at the moon
But time won't wait
And we've just about done our dance
But if you want to get dirty on this
We can dig up some skeletons; we might stand a chance
And you know what I'm talking about
It happens time and again
If you're looking for a way out
It's the same way you came in
The same way you came in
Now living together ain't easy
You proved that more than once
But it's not as hard as you make it
Not if you know what you want
It's time to make a decision
I hope you decide to stay
Because I think we can pull this together
No we don't have to throw this away
And you know what I'm talking about
It happens time and again
If you're looking for a way out
It's the same way you came in
The same way you came in
It's the same way you came in
The same way you came in
The same way you came in
