No Matter What - Train

I got some advice for everybody
Don't take advice from anybody
No matter what
I got this theory that folks who come from nothing
Ain't afraid to let it all hang out
While kings in castles don't like to be hassled
With the mundane street brain all heart but no clout
We dance a little maybe take a chance a little
Like it or not we're all the same
And life is a drunken teacher who never had a PhD
She makes you learn she makes you cry
And there is just one guarantee
But no matter what you're bound to learn
I got this friend he'll love you till the end
But he's driving down a dead-end street
He says it ain't about the money
But let me tell you honey
He's a whole other level of cheap
He'll throw a ten in the tipping jar
Ask for nine-fifty back he drives a Ferrari
Life is a wicked game you win right up until you lose
All that fame it ends the same then you're buried in your blue suede shoes
And no matter what you're in the news
And no matter what we run out of time
Keeps ticking away
The sun sets with or without a thing I say
Side note a Dear John letter that's all she wrote
A priceless dream in a lead boat
All I own that means a thing is to hear you sing
And my reflection in your eyes
So dance a little maybe take a chance a little
All we got is this and this is real good
Life is a mean old sailor that don't care what you have in mind
His heart is cold and all that gold you gotta leave it all behind
And no matter what it's one and done
No matter what we sure had fun
