Same Old Thing Lyrics
No matter where you been
Those people try to do you in
Every day till dawn
There's some thievin' goin' on
Oh no, it hurts me so
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
It's just the same old thing
You got a callous heart
From being torn apart
Now you labor every day
Your love life drifts away
Oh no, it hurts me so
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
It's just the same old thing
Those people try to do you in
Every day till dawn
There's some thievin' goin' on
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
It's just the same old thing
From being torn apart
Now you labor every day
Your love life drifts away
Just the same old thing
Just the same old thing
No matter how much love you try to bring
It's just the same old thing

great riff on this one. and the woodwind is a nice touch. i love this entire album .
Love the woodwind on this as well.
Can anyone hear a hint of Led Zeppelin's "The Ocean" in the solo of this?
(Compare 1:51 of The Ocean to Same Old Thing from 2:13).
taal_19: Definitely!
The flute always reminds me of Jethro Tull (duh). I love it.
Seems to me this song is about someone who is tired of giving out so much love and only getting betrayed in return.
