Don't Ask Me Why

Dont Ask Me Why
Billy Joel

All the waiters in your grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink
Every dog must have his everyday
Every drunk must have his drink
Dont wait for answers
Just take your chances
Dont ask me why

All you life you had to stand in line
Still youre standing on your feet
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calenders complete
Dont wait for answers
Just take your chances
Dont ask me why

You can say the human heart
Is only make-believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
Of the accidents you leave
As sure as Im a victim of desire

All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby I can tell
Youre no stranger to the street
Dont ask for favors
Dont talk to strangers
Dont ask me why

Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you, 'parlez vous francais'
Dont look for answers
You took your chances
Dont ask me why
Dont ask me why
