So we've got a new concept in sound…
(Verse 1:)
Why is it that we’ve got this thing for love
Knowing good and well we're bound to get hurt
Head over heels, here we go again
Never promised to be more than a friend
(Chorus:)
That's just the way…
That’s the way the cookie crumbles baby
That's the way the story goes (story goes)
That's the way the cookie crumbles baby
That's the way the story goes
(Verse 2:)
Some say that patience is a virtue
Only good things come to those who wait
She whispered something in my ear, “I kinda dig you”
Better think twice before you say, “I do”
(Chorus:)
That's just the way…
That's the way the cookie crumbles baby
That's the way the story goes (story goes)
That's the way the cookie crumbles baby
(Nothing you can do) That’s the way the story goes
(Bridge:)
Check it out, here’s a little story
Lookin' clean with a gangster lean
Word is out, I’m going to a party, ho ho
Party lights on, officer screamin'
“This party's over”
Baby, left me standing lookin' clean on the scene
But guess what – that’s the way the cookie crumbles
(Chorus:)
That's the way the cookie crumbles baby
That's the way the story goes (story goes)
That's the way the cookie crumbles baby
(Nothing you can do) That's the way the story goes
(Nothing you can do about it)
