| Well I got a good friend who’s got a good life | 
| He’s got two pretty children and a real nice wife | 
| Yet he never seems quite satisfied | 
| I said I know what’s on your mind | 
| But you better think about it before you cross that line | 
| The grass ain’t always greener on the other side | 
| Then what, what you gonna do | 
| When the new wears off and the old shines through | 
| And it ain’t really love and it ain’t really lust | 
| You ain’t anybody anybody’s gonna trust | 
| Then what, where you gonna turn | 
| When you can’t turn back for the bridges you burn | 
| And fate can’t wait to kick you in the butt | 
| Then what | 
| Well I ain’t saying that looking’s a crime | 
| Well I’ve done my share from time to time | 
| It dont mean that you gotta take that leap | 
| When you’re standin' on the brink | 
| Before you jump you gotta step back and think | 
| There’s price for ever promise you dont keep | 
| Then what, what you gonna do | 
| When the new wears off and the old shines through | 
| And it ain’t really love and it ain’t really lust | 
| You ain’t anybody anybody’s gonna trust | 
| Then what, where you gonna turn | 
| When you can’t turn back for the bridges you burn | 
| And fate can’t wait to kick you in the butt | 
| Then what | 
| Do want you want, do want you wish | 
| It’s your life but remember this | 
| There’s bound to be some consequences | 
| Sneaking under other fences | 
| Then what, what you gonna do | 
| When the new wears off and the old shines through | 
| And it ain’t really love and it ain’t really lust | 
| You ain’t anybody anybody’s gonna trust | 
| Then what, where you gonna turn | 
| When you can’t turn back for the bridges you burn | 
| And fate can’t wait to kick you in the butt | 
| Then what |
