LYRICS

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the old folks say
But every time I see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well, I guess I'd have more fun
I guess I'd have more fun

Ooh, Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh, Wont let you get away from him
It's just another day
Like today

You decide
I dont have to
Then they'll find
That I wont ask you
At any time
Or long thereafter
If it's cold outside
I'm imagining
Oh no

Na na na na na
Na na na na na

Ooh, Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh, Wont let you get away from him
It's just another day
Like today

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the young folks say
As if they'd ever change
As that, who am I to say?
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well, I guess I'd have more fun
'Cause what used to be's
Not going to be
And ought to find someone that belongs
Insane, like I do

Na na na na na
(Oh no)
Na na na na na
(Oh no)

Not an ordinary day, not in an ordinary way
All at once this song I heard
Never longer would it play
For anybody or anyone
That needed comfort from somebody
And needed comfort from someone
Who cared to be
Not like you
Not like me
In an ordinary way for me
Somebody set the wheels in motion
Hearts are memories
So you were the instrument
You were the one
Somebody took the body
Gave that boy a gun
Took our innocence
Beyond our stance
Some type of moment
There ya got it
The only thing you did

Oh oh
