Then What

Well I got a good friend who's got a good life.
He's two pretty children and a real nice wife.
Yet he never seems quite satisfied.
Well I said I know what's on your mind
But you better think about it 'fore ya cross that line.
The grass ain't always greener on the other side.
Then what?
Whatcha gonna do
When the new wears off and the old shines through?
When it ain't really love and it ain't really lust?
You ain't anybody anyone's gonna trust.
Then what?
Where ya gonna turn
When ya can't turn back from the bridges you burned?
When fate can't wait to kick ya in the butt
Then what?
Oh then what?
Well I ain't sayin' that lookin's a crime.
Oh I've done my share from time to time.
But it don't mean that ya gotta take that leap.
When you're standin' on the brink
Before you jump ya gotta step back and think.
There's a price for every
Promise you don't keep.
Oh...
Then what?
Whatcha gonna do
When the new wears off and the old shines through?
When it ain't really love and it ain't really lust?
You ain't anybody anybody's gonna trust.
Then what?
Where ya gonna turn
When ya can't turn back from the bridges you burned?
When fate can't wait to kick ya in the butt
Then what?
Oh then what?
Do what ya want.
Do what ya wish.
It's your life but remember this:
There's bound to be some consequences
For sneakin' under other fences.
Oh...
Then what?
Whatcha gonna do
When the new wears off and the old shines through?
When it ain't really love and it ain't really lust?
You ain't anybody anybody's gonna trust.
Then what?
Where ya gonna turn
When ya can't turn back from the bridges you burned?
When fate can't wait to kick ya in the butt
Then what?
Oh then what?
Yo mon!
