John Butler Trio - Life Ain't What It Seems lyrics

Strange as it may be Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems Like going to war to make peace Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems Like the old man out there he lives on the streets And now he is asking for a dollar odff everybody he meets Never knew he used to be a milloinare on wall street Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems Just like that plane you are late for leaving without you And now it changes all you plans and puts you in a bad mood And that plane ends up crashing but at the time man you would not have a clue That being late could be so good and life is strange and this true So sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems Sometimes good presents come in bad wrapping Strange as it may be Sometimes bad presents come in good wrapping Just like our Prime Minister with his new policy called the RFA he says he wants to save the old trees You have a look at what he has come up with his business mates and you will see That the man could not give a sh** and some things ain't what they seem Just like that environmental day sponsored by Shell So we can all endorse the k**ing and go straight to hell It's like Bunnings saying they're supporting your community While they're chopping it right down and somethings ain't what they seem Oh I won't forget Everything you know it's happening, happening for a reason So there ain't no need, no need in worrying... Just get your job done. Strange as it may be Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems Like going to war to make peace Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems
