If they say that you're stayin'
You're probably on your way in or out
As you move up the ladder
It really doesn't matter somehow
Cause the need for a brand new face
Ain't never been a matter of taste
That's why there's no satisfaction
In the comin' attractions, these days.
So don't cry to your lover
Underneath the covers at night.
It's the same situation
Only re-sensationalized.
As the blind lead the blind to play
The same song a different way
And the new ones are waiting 
As the old ones are fading away
So, Mama, this drama
Means nothing after all
There's always an angel to come
When an angel falls
*CHORUS*
We're only goin' through the motions
Every day
We're only goin' through the motions
Cause we don't know a different way
We're only goin' through the motions
Just like you
We're only goin' through the motions
