Lyrics for We're Only People (And There's Not Much Anyone Can Do About That)
People, we're only people There's not much anyone can do, really do, about that But it hasn't stopped us yet People, we know so little about ourselves But just enough to wanna be nearly anybody else Now how does that add up? Oh, friends, all my friends Oh, I hope you're somewhere smiling Just know I think about you more kindly than you and I have ever been And I'll see you the next time 'round the bend People, what's the deal? You've been hurt and I've been hurt But what do we do now? People, we're only people Ain't a thing one person can ever change about that Oh, friends, all my friends Oh, I hope you're somewhere smiling Just know I think about you more kindly than you and I have ever been And I'll see you the next time 'round the bend I think the end of it all may look a lot like the beginning But passed around from hand to hand screaming for no particular reason The company gets pretty thin so we start to shed all our distinctions So why not me? Why not you? Why not now?
