Oingo Boingo - Why'd We Come (all This Way) lyrics

Intro Everyone says we've come such a long, long way We're civilized, isn't that nice? We've gotten so smart We know how to blow the whole world apart But when it comes to the simple things (like living together) . . . ha! Verse Why'd we have to come all this way Is anything any easier to understand Why'd we have to come all this way Are we any smarter than primitive men We still fall in love though we know better Anything at all just to stay together Stop wasting all my time Chorus Why did we come all this way Why did we come all this way Why did we come all this way Why did we come all this way Verse Why'd we have to come all this way We could have quit while we were way ahead Why'd we have to come all this way We could have just stayed home instead The road was long and the journey was hard We never even dreamed that we'd come so far Chorus Bridge It didn't have to end up like this It didn't have to end up like this It didn't have to end up like this It didn't have to end up like this
