[Verse 1: Peter Cetera, (Bandmates)]
Why do we have to go and face the same routine? (Do do do do do do do do do)
And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real neurotic scene (Do do do do do do do do do)
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah yeah
[Verse 2: Peter Cetera, (Bandmates)]
Why does my girl tell me she's got to have her way? (Do do do do do do do do do do)
Out all night, come home to fight, what am I to say? (Do do do do do do do do do do)
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah yeah-eah yeah
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]
Life is what it is
Who wants to try not to believe?
That's the way it is
Oh, oh
[Verse 3: Peter Cetera, (Bandmates)]
I don't know why what you feel inside (Days go on)
Love is something that you just can't hide (If it's wrong)
Then you'll want to know, you don't know why (I sing a song)
And it helps me yet, I'll get by (At times)
Lost in time, sometimes your mind unwinds (Sun does shine)
But no pleasure from your beauty's mine (Like champagne wine)
A bitter taste, ooh, that's so refined (Life it's fine)
You always pay for what, what's behind
[Verse 4: Peter Cetera, (Bandmates)]
Why do I have to go and face the same routine? (Do do do do do do do do do do)
Ooh, the traffic jams and crowded street's a real neurotic scene (Do do do do do do do do do do)
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah yeah-eah yeah
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]
Life is what it is
Who wants to try not to believe?
That's the way it is
Oh, oh
[Verse 5: Peter Cetera, (Bandmates)]
I don't know why what you feel inside (Days go on)
Love is something that you just can't hide (If it's wrong)
Then you'll want to know, you don't know why (I sing a song)
And it helps me yet, I'll get by (At times)
Lost in time, sometimes your mind unwinds (Sun does shine)
But no pleasure from your beauty's mine (Like champagne wine)
A bitter taste, ooh, that's so refined (Life it's fine)
You always pay for what, what's behind
[Outro: Bandmates]
Do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
