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

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

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?

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
