The Story Lyrics
Let me tell you a story
About a boy and a girl
It`s kinda short, kinda boringBut the end is a whirl
They were just sixteen
When the people were mean
So they didn`t love themselves
And now they`re gone
Headstones on a lawn
And when I was younger
I knew a boy and a boy
Best friends with each other
But always wished they were more
`Cause they loved one another
But never discovered
`Cause they were too afraid of what they`d say
Moved to different states
Oh, and I`m afraid that`s just the way the world works
It ain`t funny, it ain`t pretty, it ain`t sweet
Oh, and I`m afraid that`s just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
It`s not the end of the story
Now it`s on to the sequel
About me and my friend
Both our parents were evil
So we both made a bet
If we worked and we saved
We could both run away
And we`d have a better life
And I was right
I wonder if she`s alright
Oh, and I`m afraid that`s just the way the world works
It ain`t funny, it ain`t pretty, it ain`t sweet
Oh, and I`m afraid that`s just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
It`s not the end of the story

Okay
And the movie`s always running in my head
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends
And I hope that they all get their happy end
In the end
Oh, and I`m afraid that`s just the way the world works
It ain`t funny, it ain`t pretty, it ain`t sweet
Oh, and I`m afraid that`s just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
It`s not the end of the story
Hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm
