It Doesn't Have To Be This Way

It doesn't have to be this way
Just counting the hours
'Cos when your bed is made
Then baby it's too late
There's no hope for a hungry child
Whose joker is wild
They take all hope away
By the end of the day
Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey what did I hear you say?
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
You when you walk out the door
You gonna ask for more
It doesn't have to hurt that way
Just counting the pain
You've only got yourself to blame
For playing the game
There's no hope for a hungry child no wonder!
Whose joker is wild and they take all hope
And I just can't see the sense and my mind's a haze
Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey what did I hear you say?
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
You when you walk out the door
You gonna ask for more
Do you want it? Do you want it?
Don't you know that I got it baby?
Don't you know I got it baby?
And I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey! what did I hear you say?
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
You when you walk out the door
You better ask for more
