As long as I've been around
To my convictions I am bound
Well here's what I've found
In the cities and towns
Life ain't nothing but a merry-go-round
You know that life never ends
So get out there with your friends
Hey what have you got to lose
But you do gotta choose
The direction in which you move
It's All Been Done Before
It's always been my belief
That everything is gonna repeat
Hey let there be no debate
Whether early or late
So the laws of history state
If you hang around long enough
You'll see that everything starts to rust
Then shine it all up til it's tip-top
And old becomes new again
It's All Been Done Before
And if you hang around long enough
And you experience really cool stuff
You'll see that old becomes new
Then new becomes old
Til old becomes new again
To my convictions I am bound
Well here's what I've found
In the cities and towns
Life ain't nothing but a merry-go-round
You know that life never ends
So get out there with your friends
