People slippin' in the rain
I watch them get up again
It makes me feel like I can too
Hey hey ya

Just when I get off the ground
Your back tryin' to put me down
Like some simpleton you can use
Hey

[Chorus]
Well It's the same old fucking story
With your two different sets of rules
The same old fucking story
One for me two for you
It's the same old fucking story
It's the same old fucking story all around yeah

Still some glory in my eyes
Much to everyone's surprise
After everything you put me through
Yeah well
Friends tell me you've been around
Big fish in a big ol' town
Gobble up all in one fair swoop yeah

[Chorus]

Still got my feet on tie to the beat yeah
Still got my feet on tie to the beat yeah
Still got my feet on tie to the beat yeah
Still got my feet on tie to the beat yeah

Still some glory in my eyes
Much to everyone's surprise
After everything you put me through
Yeah well
Friends tell me you've been around
Big fish in a big ol' town
Gobble up all in one fair swoop yeah

[Chorus]

It's the same fucking story know damn well it's true
Same ol' same ol' same ol' same ol' same ol'

[Chorus]
