Why Not

You 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 may never be a sign
No flashing neon light
Telling you to make your move
Or 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 want to dress in gold
Instead of listening to your heart
You do just what you're told.

You keep waiting where you are
For what you'll never know
Let's just get in to your car
And go, baby go.

(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.

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
It might take a little
And it might take a lot
But why not
Why not.

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.
