We rarely practice discern
That's the way we get by
That's the way we get by
Fall in love to down on the street
I said, that's the way we get by
The way we get by
We get high in back seats of cars
We seek out the taciturn
You sweet talk like a cop and you know it
That's the way we get by
We go to sleep to shake appeal
The way to my heart
The way we get by
That's the way we get by
We make love to some weird sin
That's the way we get by
We believe in the sum of ourselves
The way we get by
The way we get by
Tried it out it's like nothing you ever seen
Oh, that's the way we get by
The way we get by
Oh, that's the way we get by
That's the way we get by
That's the way we get by
The way we get by, the way
And that's the way to my heart
The way we get by
Never wake up on our own
That's the way we get by
That's the way we get by
You bought a new bag of pot, said let's make a new start
The way we get by
Oh, that's the way we get by
We go out in stormy weather
We put faith in our concerns
That's the way we get by
The way we get by, the way
We found a new kind of dance in a magazine
And that's the way we get by
The way we get by, the way
