Something isn't right |
|
I don't know how I know |
|
But baby, it's despite |
|
Your dog-and-pony show |
|
I can hear it coming |
|
You're only going through the motions, baby |
|
With your engines humming |
|
You're just going through the motions, baby |
|
Feel like I'm in jail |
|
With you and Mr. Hyde |
|
A guy who leaves a trail |
|
About a mile wide |
|
So it starts already |
|
That you're just going through the motions, baby |
|
You can throw confetti |
|
But you're still going through the motions, baby |
|
Going through the motions, baby |
|
They'll have a big parade |
|
For every day that you stay clean |
|
But when the trumpets fade |
|
You'll go under like a submarine |
|
And you won't see it coming |
|
No, you won't see it coming |
|
You could have it made |
|
Up there in San Rafael |
|
But baby, I'm afraid |
|
I'll never see you well |
|
Because I've seen the tally |
|
And you're just going through the motions, baby |
|
To a big finale |
|
That comes from going through the motions, baby |
|
Going through the motions, baby |
|
Going through the motions, baby |
|
You're just going through the motions, baby |
