I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.
I can't believe what          
  ' gonna let your hair hang    ,
' satisfied to sit here       all day long,
You're in the      side of town.
And when I'm out I see you       ,
  don't your eyes see me,
Could it be   ' found another game to play,
What did mama say to me.
*that's the way,
Oh, that's the way it ought to  ,
   , yeah, mama  
   ' the way it ought to stay.
And         I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your    ,
  all the fish that lay in dirty water     ,
  they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and   .
don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned    ,
  now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way
That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know  
      .. that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah.
