Life Ain't What It Seems Lyrics - John Butler Trio

Strange as it may be 

Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems 

It's like going to war to make peace 

Sometimes life you know it ain'twhat it seems 

Like the old man out there he lives on the streets 

And now he is asking for a dollar off everybody he meets 

Never knew he used to be a milloinare on wall street 

Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems 

Just like that plane you're late for leaving without you 

And now it changes all your plans and puts you in a bad mood 

And that plane ends up crashing but at the time man you would not have a clue 

That being late could be so good and life is strange and this true 

So sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems 

Sometimes good presents come in bad wrapping 

Yeh, Strange as it may be 

Sometimes bad presents come in good wrapping 

Just like our Prime Minister with his new policy 

called the RFA he says he wants to save the old trees 

You have a look at what he has come up with his business mates and you will see 

That the man could not give a shit and some things ain't what they seem 

Just like that environmental day sponsored by Shell 

So we can all endorse the killing and go straight to hell 

It's like Bunnings saying they're supporting your community 

While they're chopping it right down and somethings ain't what they seem 

No 

Oh I won't forget 

Everything 

You know it's happening, 

happening for a reason 

So there ain't no need, no need in worrying... 

Just get your job done. 

Strange as it may be 

Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems 

Like going to war to make peace 

Sometimes life you know it ain't what it seems
