The Things We Do
[Verse 1]
We wash our clothes,
We press our shirts,
We brush our teeth,
And we go to work.
We fill our tanks,
And we wax our cars,
We edge our driveways,
And mow our yards.
[Bridge]
There's the things that we do,
(theres the things that we do)
Yea, all the things that we do,
(all the things that we do)
There's the things that we do
(theres the things that we do)
And then theres... the things we want to do
[Chorus]
I want to kiss some guy that I don't know,
Buy a one way ticket down to Mexico,
Parasail and learn to fly,
And skinny dip in paradise.
[Verse 2]
But I tie my shoes,
And I exercise,
And I sit up straight,
And I stand in line.
And I paint my walls,
And I fill my cracks,
And every April fools,
I figure out my tax.
[Bridge]
There's the things that we do,
(theres the things that we do)
Yea, all the things that we do,
(all the things that we do)
There's the things that we do
(theres the things that we do)
And then theres... the things we want to do
[Chorus]
I want to throw my food in a restaurant,
Take two weeks off any time I want,
Climb everest and see the world,
Ride a big black Harley like a gypsy girl.
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
But I pour my milk,
And I eat my flakes,
And every once a year,
I get to cut my cake.
And I want my watch,
And I pay my rent,
And sometimes I wonder,
Where my life went.
[Bridge]
There's the things that we do,
(theres the things that we do)
Yea, all the things that we do,
(all the things that we do)
There's the things that we do
(theres the things that we do)
And then theres... the things we want to do
[Chours]
I want to take the conquered to Paris, France,
Learn gourmet cookin' and how to dance,
Win the lottery and give it all away,
Those homeless need some place to stay.
[Bridge]
There's the things that we do,
(theres the things that we do)
Yea, all the things that we do,
(all the things that we do)
There's the things that we do
(theres the things that we do)
And then theres... the things we wanna... Do
