There was this guy, his name was James, we'll call him
Jim for the sake of conversation
Jim is a guy who had something that he always something
he wanted to do, but everyone told him not to bother
well life walked by and well it gave Jim a kick in the
head a few times here and there
and Jim always got up and wondered why he always
offered up his face

Don't throw your life away, come take a look outside
it's such a beautiful day
Don't throw your life away, come take a look outside
it's such a beautiful day

I used to know this girl called Sally, she had fun in a
pretty un-fun kind of way
She used to sit in an office all day and make coffee
wishing she was doing something else
You see the thing about Sally is that Sally had an
amazing gift, something special to offer
But because she never got up, never tried, she never
knew

Don't throw your life away, come take a look outside
it's such a beautiful day
Don't throw your life away, come take a look outside
it's such a beautiful day

There are a lot of people out there and not all of them
are right
Some of them are wrong
I'm not gonna say which ones but we know who they are,
oh yeah
You know, there's tall people, small people, wide
people,narrow people, all different kinds of people
We can never know what they want or what's good for
them
But one thing we all know, is we know what WE want.

Don't throw your life away, come take a look outside
it's such a beautiful day
Don't throw your life away, come take a look outside
it's such a beautiful day
