We don't know what's coming next
We don't know what came before
And suddenly we found ourselves in the back yard
We got along pretty well
We played show and tell
We did what we were told
Cuz were good kids
We barely got into trouble
We never asked for advice
We shed our clothes in the garden
For a water fight
God supposedly know'd everything we'd do
And what we had done
And had yet to do
So why try to be good
Why even try to try
To please a big man in the sky
Will we be better
Will we be happy
We show up and we try
Then we try to try some more
Our parents refined us
Our rebellion defined us
And we still don't know what comes next
We've already lived and been judged
So why try to be good
Why even try to try
To please a fake guy in the sky
Why try to be good
Why even try to try
To please a big man in the sky
Will we be better
Will we be happy
We show up and we try
Then we try to try some more
