Don't know how I let things go, you see
 Don't know why it took a sudden turn
 Didn't seem to be a big concern
 And everything is all too much
 Hot and bothered, you're cool to the touch
 And everyone is worlds apart
 It must have been this way from the start

 When there's nothing here to save the day
 Then we have to say
 There's a reason for it
 When there's nothing left for us to do
 You're left without a clue
 There's a reason for it

 Don't know how it got away from me
 Don't know how I let things go, you see
 Don't know why it took a sudden turn
 Didn't seem to be a big concern
 And everyone is all too well
 All well-adjusted people
 Can't you tell?
 And everything is all too fast
 Just add water Nothing's built to last

 When your colleagues can't recall your name
 Time and time again
 There's a reason for it
 When your name's the butt of every joke
 Just about to croak T
 here's a reason for it
 And everyone is worlds apart
 It must have been this way from the start
 When there's nothing here to save the day
 Then we have to say
 There's a reason for it
 When there's nothing left for us to do
 You're left without a clue
 There's a reason for it
 There's a reason for it
 There's a reason for it
 There's a reason for it
