Short on Ideas

[Verse 1]
Have you been feeling down, pushed around
Feeling like everything has been done before?
Do I need to understand every word from every man
Or everything from every band?

[Chorus]
Can I say it's all been done before
Religion, science, similes to metaphors
(Whoa) Can it be that there's nothing new
(Whoa) When there's more ways of looking at the truth?
Of looking at the truth

[Verse 2]
The more things seem to change
The more they just stay the same
But now it's called a different name
Can you say things are new
When you look at magazines
And things you've seen in the news?

[Chorus]
And can I say it's all been done before
Religion, science, similes to metaphors
(Whoa) Can it be that there's nothing new
(Whoa) When there's more ways of looking at the truth?
Of looking at the truth
