In These Times

What's the use in staying

When everything's a lie

I hear what you're saying

And it makes me want to cry

You know the truth is so overrated

That should come as no surprise

It's all so complicated

Especially in these times

Don't it make you crazy

Don't it make you ask yourself why

Nobody's got an answer

Especially in these times

Life is like a puzzle

Best to chose the edges first

And work back to the middle

To the places where it hurts

Lately I've been thinkin'

Maybe there's a chance for us

If we take it slow now

And don't expect too much

Don't it make you wonder

Don't it make you ask yourself why

Nobody's got an answer

Especially in these times

And don't it make you crazy

Don't it make you ask yourself why

Nobody's got an answer

Especially in these times

Ooh, ooh

(what's the use in stayin', when everything's a lie

And there's nothing sacred, especially in these times)

Hey don't it make you crazy

Don't it make you ask yourself why

Nobody's got an answer

Especially in these times

And don't it make you wonder

Don't it make you ask yourself why

Nobody's got an answer

Especially in these times

In these times
