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 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
