But Anyway

I lied and told her I loved her, she didn't care, but anyway

I told her we'd still be friends, and she didn't care, but anyway

I tried last week for to call her, she wasn't home, but anyway

I think I'll spend my life alone, I really don't care right now, but anyway

It's a state of affairs and a state of emotions

The kind of thing that you must understand

I tell you one thing, you tell me another

We walk away, maybe then shake hands

I'm quitting cigarette smoking, it's bad for me, but anyway

I don't think the TV was joking when it told me this, but anyway

The newsman said not to sit on strange toilet seats

It's my life he's trying to save, but anyway

I found out that I got eye cancer, too many television waves, but anyway

It's a state of affairs and a state of emotions

Kinda thing that you must understand

I tell you one thing, you tell me another

We walk away, maybe then shake hands

Someday an answer will find us, quite a long shot, but anyway

I think the past, the past is behind us

Be real confusing if not, but anyway

I put all my hope in tomorrow, it's gonna be great, I can tell, but anyway

I see a new, a new day a-dawning

I like to sleep late, oh well, but anyway

It's a state of affairs, a state of emotions

The kinda thing that you must understand

I tell you one thing, you tell me another

We walk away, maybe then shake hands
