It Doesn't Work Like That
Lovers that live far apart
Need one another
But only have their postcards
I guess it doesn't work like that
The pitcher of the baseball team
Traded in his jersey
Doesn't want to leave
I guess it doesn't work like that
I guess it doesn't work like that
A collar around a dog's neck
His only identity
And he has no say in it
I guess it doesn't work like that
My sister is a hard worker
She doesn't deserve to be behind the counter
I guess it doesn't work like that
I guess it doesn't work like that
I've seen my mother in pain
Begging for her mom to remember her name
I guess it doesn't work like that
It never really works like that
No Funciona Así
Amantes que viven lejos
Se necesitan mutuamente
Pero solo tienen sus postales
Supongo que no funciona así
El lanzador del equipo de béisbol
Cambiado su camiseta
No quiere irse
Supongo que no funciona así
Supongo que no funciona así
Un collar alrededor del cuello de un perro
Su única identidad
Y él no tiene voz en eso
Supongo que no funciona así
Mi hermana es una trabajadora incansable
No merece estar detrás del mostrador
Supongo que no funciona así
Supongo que no funciona así
He visto a mi madre sufrir
Rogando para que su mamá recuerde su nombre
Supongo que no funciona así
Nunca realmente funciona así
