Lyrics funny the way it is

Lying in the park,
On a beautiful day.
Sunshine in the grass,
And the children play.
Sirens passin',
Fire engine red.
Someone's house is burning down,
On a day like this.

The evening comes,
And we're hanging out,
On the front step and a car goes by,
With the windows rolled down.
And that War song is playing â??Why can't we be friends?â??
Someone is screaming and crying in the apartment upstairs.

Funny the way it is.
If you think about it.
Somebody's going hungry,
And someone else is eating out.
Funny the way it is.
Not right or wrong.
Somebody's heart is broken,
And it becomes your favorite song.

The way her mouth feels in a lover's kiss.
Like a pretty bird on the breeze,
Or water to a fish.
The bomb blast brings a building crashing to the floor.
Hear the laughter,
While the children play war.

Funny the way it is.
If you think about it
One kid walks ten miles to school,
Another's droppin' out.
Funny the way it is.
Not right or wrong.
On a soldier's last breath,
His baby's being born.

Standing on a bridge.
Watch the water passing underneath,
It must have been much harder,
When there was no bridge, just water.
Now the world is small,
Compared to how it used to be,
With mountains and oceans,
And winters and rivers and stars.

There's the sky,
The jet plane so far out of my reach.
Is there someone up there looking down on me?
A boy chase a bird,
So close but every time,
He never catch her,
But he can't stop trying.

Funny the way it is.
If you think about it
One kid walks ten miles to school,
Another's droppin' out.
Funny the way it is.
Not right or wrong.
On a soldier's last breath,
His baby's being born.

Funny the way it is.
Not right or wrong.
Somebody's broken heart,
Becomes your favorite song.
Funny the way it is.
If you think about it.
One kid walks ten miles to school,
Another's droppin' out.

Standing on a bridge.
Watch the water passing underneath,
It must have been much harder,
When there was no bridge, just water.
Now the world is small,
Compared to how it used to be,
With mountains and oceans,
And winters and rivers and stars.

Lying in the park on a beautiful day
Sunshine in the grass, and the children play
Siren's passing, fire engine red
Someone's house is burning down on a day like this

The evening comes and we're hanging out
On the front step and a car rolls by with the windows rolled down
And that war song is playing, why can't we be friends?
Someone is screaming and crying in the apartment upstairs

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
Somebody's going hungry and someone else is eating out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody's heart is broken and it becomes your favorite song

The way your mouth feels in your lovers kiss
Like a pretty bird on a breeze or water to a fish
A bomb blast brings a building crashing to the floor
You hear the laughter while the children play war

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier's last breath his baby's being born

Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me
It must've been much harder when there was no bridge just water
Now the world is small, remember how it used to be
With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars

Watch the sky, the jet planes, so far out of my reach
Is there someone up there looking down on me?
Boy chase a bird, so close but every time
He'll never catch her, but he can't stop trying

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier's last breath his baby's being born
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody's broken heart becomes your favorite song
Funny the way it is, if you think about it
A kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out

Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me
It must've been much harder when there was no bridge just water
Now the world is small, remember how it used to be
With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars

Siren's passing, fire engine red
Someone's house is burning down on a day like this?

The evening comes and we,re hanging out
On the front step, and a car rolls by with the windows rolled down
And that war song is playing, 「why can,t we be friends?」
Somebody's screaming and crying in the apartment upstairs

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
Somebody's going hungry and someone else is eating out
Funny the way it is, nor right or wrong
Somebody's heart is broken and it becomes your favorite song

Laying out in a field in a lover's kiss
Like a baby bird on a breeze or water to a fig
A bomb blast brings a building crashing to the floor
You can hear the laughter while the children play 「war」

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
A kid walks 10 miles to school, another's dropping out
Funny the way it is, nor right or wrong
Oh, a soldier's last breath and a baby's being born

Standing on a bridge, watch the water passing under me
