John Butler Trio - Life Ain't What It Seems Lyrics
Strange as it may beSometimes life you know it ain't what it seemsLike going to war to make peaceSometimes life you know it ain't what it seemsLike the old man out there he lives on the streetsAnd now he is asking for a dollar off everybody he meetsNever knew he used to be a milloinare on wall streetSometimes life you know it ain't what it seemsJust like that plane you are late for leaving without youAnd now it changes all you plans and puts you in a bad moodAnd that plane ends up crashing but at the time man you would not have a clueThat being late could be so good and life is strange and this trueSo sometimes life you know it ain't what it seemsSometimes good presents come in bad wrappingStrange as it may beSometimes bad presents come in good wrappingJust like our Prime Minister with his new policycalled the RFA he says he wants to save the old treesYou have a look at what he has come up with his business mates and you will seeThat the man could not give a shit and some things ain't what they seemJust like that environmental day sponsored by ShellSo we can all endorse the killing and go straight to hellIt's like Bunnings saying they're supporting your communityWhile they're chopping it right down and somethings ain't what they seemOh I won't forgetEverything you know it's happening, happening for a reasonSo there ain't no need, no need in worrying...Just get your job done.Strange as it may beSometimes life you know it ain't what it seemsLike going to war to make peaceSometimes life you know it ain't what it seems
