Tell Me Why - Lyrics - M.i.a.

Tell me why Things change but it feels the same If life is such a game How come people all act the same? I been coming up for a while on your radar I know I made it just by counting up my hater I got a speed boat, get away, like later You better have a load of cheddar if you aint got data Cos you can live it up, pull it up, start reeling Start throwing hands up like you're mad at the ceiling You can make a killing but don't forget the feeling People stealing money and down with double dealing Tell me why Things change but it feels the same If life is such a game How come people all act the same? You can take me courthouse You can take me jail You can take me anywhere But you cant get me there You can ask me where I'm going And I'll tell you crazy But when I get to where I'm going You should come with me You been staying up, pull me up, start reeling I'm throwing up my hands like I'm mad at the ceiling Tell me why Things change but it feels the same If life is such a game How come people all act the same? I got roof on my head, I got food in my pot And the old ways are dead with the new ones we got There's water in my pot and I'm half and half not And the old kind is broke with the new kind we bought I drink alcohol, know the words to Wonderwall I rewrite the code while I do my time on road Tell me why Things change but it feels the same If life is such a game How come people all act the same
