[Verse 1]
Out on the highway the traffic's congested
The streets are infested with people
Feels like I'm stuck in this automobile
Trying to get through the eye of the needle
I'm just wanting to find my place
In a rat race that nobody's winning
I'm just as guilty as anyone
This isn't the way that I ought a be living
[Chorus]
Ooh, one of these days I'm going to listen
Ooh, whoa, life is a teacher and love is a lesson
Yes it is, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Haven't we come a long way, baby?
Since the things that they taught us in history
Been all the way to the moon and back
But the heart of the matter's a mystery
We're all headed for a fiery crash
And nobody knows when it's coming
Just look at this helter skelter world
Man, it's no wonder everyone's running
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
With crime in the street and the cold and the heat
And the pain that the people are feeling
Don't you all think it's time we all stood together
And let love be the healer?
[Chorus] [x2]
Love is the lesson
Life is a teacher, love is the lesson, yeah
You got to know love is the lesson
[Outro]
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Out on the highway the traffic's congested
The streets are infested with people
Feels like I'm stuck in this automobile
Trying to get through the eye of the needle
I'm just wanting to find my place
In a rat race that nobody's winning
I'm just as guilty as anyone
This isn't the way that I ought a be living
[Chorus]
Ooh, one of these days I'm going to listen
Ooh, whoa, life is a teacher and love is a lesson
Yes it is, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Haven't we come a long way, baby?
Since the things that they taught us in history
Been all the way to the moon and back
But the heart of the matter's a mystery
We're all headed for a fiery crash
And nobody knows when it's coming
Just look at this helter skelter world
Man, it's no wonder everyone's running
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
With crime in the street and the cold and the heat
And the pain that the people are feeling
Don't you all think it's time we all stood together
And let love be the healer?
[Chorus] [x2]
Love is the lesson
Life is a teacher, love is the lesson, yeah
You got to know love is the lesson
[Outro]
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
