The Lyrics of Terry Hubbard

Not The Way You Think It Is

written 1989  © 1989 -2007 by T. Hubbard 

It's not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is

not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is,

I'm sorry.............................,  

I just got to tell the truth.

It's not the way you think it is.

All of our lives we've been lied to

by unsuspecting fools 

who've been lied to themselves,

and I wonder what kind of thunder

it will take to change your mind.

It's not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is

not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is,

I'm sorry if it takes you by surprise, 

can't you hear the music?

Open up your eyes.

Look out your window, it's a nightmare.

Everyone going nowhere just as fast as they can.

And no one's tellin' me, 

that's some kind of way to be free;

Counting their lives on a wristwatch, 

down to a man.

It's not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is

not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is,

I'm sorry it's really up to you, 

some of us are living, you can do it too. 

Ah can't you see what it's coming to?

The way you're believin' 

is the way your life comes true,]

and there's no hope if you believe in fear,

just to get yours while you are still here.

Is your freedom safe inside a bank?

Does your soul deposit know whom it must thank?

I'm sorry, do you want to kill me now?

It's not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is

not the way you think it is, 

not the way you think it is.
