Funny The Way It Is ...

It's a song from the last Dave Matthews Band album , Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King .

I want you to take a look at the lyrics, and think about it :

___

Lying in the park on a beautiful day

Sunshine in the grass, and the children play
Siren’s passing, fire engine red
Someone’s house is burning down on a day like this

(...)

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
Somebody’s going hungry and someone else is eating out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody’s heart is broken and it becomes your favorite song

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
One kid walks 10 miles to school, another’s dropping out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
On a soldier’s last breath his baby’s being born
