lyrics

There is never a fairer word said
But never a stranger word said
Than it’s what happens
It’s what happens
There is never a flatter word said
But never a sadder word said
Than it’s what happens
It’s what happens

It is all we can make of decay
Can’t be halted or explained away
But it’s what happens
It’s what happens

And there’s only one other way of saying it
That it is what it is
It is what it is
It is what it is

It is all we can say of that day
Can’t ignore it or chase it away
It will happen
It will happen

And there’s only one other way of saying it
That it is what it is
It is what it is
It is what it is

There is never a saner word said
But never a braver word said
Than it’s what happens
It’s what happens
