Yeah we plugged it in
And we turned it on
And we made it up
As we went along

And it always happens like that
And it always happens like that

Yeah we made a film
Starring you and me
Just hanging around
Turned out to be a smash

And it always happens like that
And it always happens like that

You can do what you like
But you can't do that
You can say what you want
But you can't say that
You can go anywhere
But you can't go there

That looks like a letter that I don't want to open

Aaah, aaah, aaah

And we broke into
The municipal pool
And we turned it in
To a madrigal

And it always happens like that
And it always happens like that

You can do what you like
But you can't do that
You can say what you want
But you can't say that
You can go anywhere
But you can't go there

That looks like a letter that I don't want to open
That looks like a letter that I don't want to open

And we made a vow
To the holy cow
And we set it up
Just to knock it down

And it always happens like that
And it always happens like that
And it will always happen like that
And it will always happen like that
And I always do it like that
And I always do it like that
