Going through the motions

(John Elefante / Dino Elefante) Standing in line At the usual time With a dollar and a dime Are you going through the motions? Do you wear the latest style? Can you guarantee a smile? Won't you stop and talk awhile? Are you going through the motions (Chorus) And is your day just a reflection of the day before? Don't you ever stop and wonder if there's something more? Do you really mean to tell me that you're satisfied? Are you for real or are you going through the motions? Heresay, theresay Everything is fine Are you running out of time? Going through the motions Some things never change Easy chair, nine to five Get ahead, stay alive Are you going through the motions (Chorus) Stop and take a look around you Don't say it isn't there People going through the motions Everywhere I know it isn't easy It gets tougher every day But we keep going through the motions Anyway Going through the motions
