Uh-huh, life’s like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
That’s the way it is
‘Cause life’s like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
That’s the way it is

Chill out, whatcha yellin’ for?
Lay back, it’s all been done before
And if you could only
Let it be, you would see
I like you the way you are
When we’re drivin’ in your car
And you’re talkin’ to me
One-on-one but you become

Somebody else ‘round everyone else
You’re watchin’ your back like you can’t relax
You’re tryna be cool, you look like a fool to me, tell me

Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you’re
Actin’ like you’re somebody else, gets me frustrated
Life’s like this, you
And you fall, and you crawl, and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honesty and promise me, I’m never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no

You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you’re somethin’ else
Where you are and where it’s at
You see, you’re makin’ me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know, you’re not foolin’
Anyone when you become

Somebody else ‘round everyone else
You’re watchin’ your back like you can’t relax
You’re tryna be cool, you look like a fool to me, tell me

Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you’re
Actin’ like you’re somebody else, gets me frustrated
Life’s like this, you
And you fall, and you crawl, and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honesty and promise me, I’m never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no (No)
No (No), no, (No)
No (No), no, (No)
No (No), no (No), no, no (No)

Chill out, whatcha yellin’ for?
Lay back, it’s all been done before
And if you could only let it be, you will see

Somebody else ‘round everyone else
You’re watchin’ your back like you can’t relax
You’re tryin’ to be cool, you look like a fool to me, tell me

Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you’re
Actin’ like you’re somebody else, gets me frustrated
Life’s like this, you
And you fall, and you crawl, and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honesty and promise me, I’m never gonna find you fake it
No, no
Why’d you have to go and make things so complicated? (Ay-yeah)
I see the way you’re
Actin’ like you’re somebody else, gets me frustrated
Life’s like this, you
And you fall, and you crawl, and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honesty and promise me, I’m never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no

He was a boy, she was a girl
Can I make it any more obvious?
He was a punk, she did ballet
What more can I say?
He wanted her, she’d never tell
Secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck up their nose
They had a problem with his baggy clothes

He was a skater boy, she said, “See you later, boy”
He wasn’t good enough for her
She had a pretty face, but her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to Earth

Five years from now, she sits at home
Feedin’ the baby, she’s all alone
She turns on TV, guess who she sees?
Skater boy rockin’ up MTV
She calls up her friends, they already know
And they’ve all got tickets to see his show
She tags along and stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down

He was a skater boy, she said, “See you later, boy”
He wasn’t good enough for her
Now he’s a superstar slammin’ on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he’s worth?
He was a skater boy, she said, “See you later, boy”

Now he’s a superstar slammin’ on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he’s worth?

Sorry, girl, but you missed out
Well, tough luck, that boy’s mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn’t see
I see the man that boy could be
There is more than meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside

He’s just a boy, and I’m just a girl
Can I make it any more obvious?
We are in love, haven’t you heard
How we rock each other’s world?

(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I’m with the skater boy (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I said, “See you later, boy” (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I’ll be backstage after the show (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I’ll be at our studio (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Singin’ the song we wrote (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
About a girl you used to know (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
