Verse 1:
Every once in a while
people break down
wonderin' why
life is now

chorus:
wonderin' why, wonderin' why
wonderin' why it's so hard to understand
wonderin' why people don't give others a chance

Verse 2:
It's so hard to believe
that people can be so mean
when they haven't walked in others footsteps

Chorus:
Wonderin' why, wonderin' why
wonderin' why it's so hard to understand
wonderin' why people don't give others a chance

Verse 3:
They don't know what it feels like to be kicked when you're down
they don't know what it feels like t feel like no one's there when you need them most
so welcome to a persons life that's just sittin' round' wonderin' why

Chorus:
Wonderin' why, wonderin' why
wonderin' why it's so hard to understand
wonderin' why people don't give others a chance
