How it is - Walk Off the Earth/Gianni Nicassio/Sarah Blackwood/Jesse Finkelstein/Evan Miles/Scott McManus

Composed by：Gianni Nicassio/Sarah Blackwood/Jesse Finkelstein/Evan Miles/Scott McManus

Beauty queens and libertines and beggars on their benches

They go to sleep and dream like you and I

Billionaires behind their walls and soldiers in their trenches

We're all just looking for a reason why

To get out of bed in the morning

To fight off the urge to just go call it quits

'Cuz sometimes reality is boring

And it's a shame but it's just how it is

Everybody's gotta live

Yes they do

And everybody's gonna die

Die die

Everybody try to have a a good time

I think you know the reason why

So pour a drink or have a smoke cuz we all got our vices

Just doing what we need to to get by

Wear a dress your Sunday best whatever you feel nice in

Cuz God knows we all need a reason why

To get out of bed in the morning

To fight off the urge to just go call it quits

'Cuz sometimes reality is boring

And it's a shame but it's just how it is

Everybody's gotta live

Yes they do

And everybody's gonna die

Die die

Everybody try to have a a good time

I think you know the reason why

Taxi cars and prison bars and history repeating

We build our little boxes you and I

So cross your heart or read your cards whatever you believe in

'Cuz God knows we all need a reason why

To get out of bed in the morning

To fight off the urge to just go call it quits

'Cuz sometimes reality is boring

And it's a shame but it's just how it is

Everybody's gotta live

Yes they do

And everybody's gonna die

Die die

Everybody try to have a a good time

I think you know the reason why

To get out of bed in the morning

To fight off the urge to just go call it quits

'Cuz sometimes reality is boring

And it's a shame but it's just how
