Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Well, my job is now obsolete

Twenty-five years, and I'm on the street

They push a button, they say I'll be fine

One less job on the factory line

[Verse 2]

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

I took the very best and it was good

I'd give it all back if I could

Just 'cos you can

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

[Verse 3]

Oh, she was a face, face in the crowd

Neon lights, the music was loud

One mistake, my whole life changed

How could I cause so much pain?

[Verse 4]

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

I took the very best and it was good

I'd give it all back if I could

Just 'cos you can

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

[Verse 5]

Everybody's got a tale to tell

Oh, so easy to see through it

Dancin' around in disregard

Every word of the truth

Every word of truth

[Verse 6]

Yonder penny said it was a dime

That's when one became ten lies

Oh, it's so easy to kid yourself

Into pretending you're someone else

[Verse 7]

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

I took the very best and it was good

I'd give it all back if I could

Just 'cos you can

Oh, whoa

[Verse 8]

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

I've taken the very best and it was good

I'd give it all back if I could

Just 'cos you can

Just 'cos you can

Just 'cos you can, baby

Just 'cos you can don't mean you should

[Verse 9]

Oh, wanna give it all back

Come on, reach
