"Why Not Do the Things"

(Wayne P. Walker - Jerry House)

Why not do the things they think we've done.

I know that he's accusing you like she's accusing me
Our lives have been tormented from so much jealousy
We've always fought temptation and temptation's never won
So why not do the things they think we've done.

Why not do the things that they think we're doing all the time
Why not do the things before our boddys lose their mind
We must fight them when we're right and fighting isn't fun
So why not do the things they think we've done.

Tonight I hold you close to me though I know it's wrong
And I tell you that I love you I wanted you so long
We begged them to believe us but their trust is less than none
So why not do the things they think we've done.

Why not do the things that they think we're doing all the time
Why not do the things before our boddys lose their mind
We must fight them when we're right and fighting isn't fun
So why not do the things they think we've done.

So why not do the things they think we've done...
