Sometimes it's right to do the wrong thing
Sometimes it's good to hurt so bad
You never can be sure
Completely happy or
One hundred percent sad
Sometimes it's hard to spot the bad guys
They don't wear badges, they don't wear black
In each of them I see
A little piece of me
I'd better watch my back
Sometimes a fool can speak a wise word
Many a truth is said in jest
And everyone I know
Is neither friend or foe
They could be both I guess
Shades of grey
They're there for you to paint your night
Shades of grey to paint your day
Cos nothing's black and white
Sometimes it pays to know the answers
Sometimes it hurts to know too much
And even though I try
To see the other side
Of every life I touch
Shades of grey
They're there for you to paint your night
Shades of grey to paint your day
Cos nothing's black and white
Sometimes it's right to do the wrong thing
Sometimes it's good to hurt so bad
And every now and then
I think I'm sane, that's when
I know I must be mad
Mad
The only thing I know
Is that I know nothing, though
I'm not so sure 'bout that (boy)
I'm not so sure about that
