Think you?re going nowhere

When you?re walking down the street

Acting like you just don?t care

When life could be so sweet



Why you wanna be like that

As if there?s nothing new

You?re not fooling no one

You?re not even fooling you



So walk a little slower

And open up your eyes

Sometimes it?s so hard to see

The good things passing by



There might never be a sign

No flashing neon light

Telling you to make your move 

When the time is right



* (So) Why not

Take a crazy chance

Why not

Do a crazy dance

If you lose a moment

You might lose a lot

So why not

Why not



(Why not take a crazy chance

Why not take a crazy chance)



You always dress in yellow

When you wanna dress in gold

Instead of listening to your heart

You do just what you?re told

You keep waiting where you are

What you?ll never know

Let?s just get into your car

And go baby go 



[Repeat *]



Oh 

I could be the one for you

Oh, yeah

Maybe yes, maybe no

Oh

It could be the thing to do

What I'm saying is

You gotta let me know



You?ll never get to heaven

Or even to L.A.

If you don?t believe there?s a way



Why not

Take a star from the sky

Why not

Spread your wings and fly

(oh!) It might take a little

And it might take a lot

So why not

Why not



[Repeat *]
