Just Another Story Lyrics

Phil Collins

Father comes home 'cos his money's run out Seems a little loose tonight, he starts to shout Dinner's not on the table, seems mother's not able She's staring at the TV
You can smell it on his breath, feel it in his touch He never meant to hit her hard, but he's like that when he's had too much
Just another story about going too far Just another story about going too far
Well, the kid's at school, she's getting good grades But the peer pressure's starting now, too bad, she had it made Seems there's always someone trying to push you to do something You know, ain't the way they told you to, it's hard to see And the things you taught her, how to be, it's like you told her nothing Selective memory
Come on just try it, it's only a smoke Ain't gonna kill you, so she takes a toke Fade to gray
Just another story about going too far Just another story about going too far
Well, the guys at work seemed okay They'd buy you a drink and get you laid, what's wrong with that? Why'd they have more money than you Expensive cars and expensive clothes, do you ever think of what they do?
At night they're out, shakin' people down When they're walking together, seems they own the town But hey, who's gonna talk, you are their alibi Don't turn around, don't ask questions, just walk
It's just another story about going too far It's just another story about going too far
Just another story about going too far Just another story about going too far
