Song Description
a lament of a relationship that is stuck, stale, going nowhere.
even trying to mix things up results in the same old thing!
from the fun dance track music you get the idea that the girl is ready to shake it off and move on!

Lyrics
Just A Different Kind
(Of The Same Old Thing)
Day in, day out,
all year round
Over, under, upside down
Time stands still,
the clock unwound
It's just a different kind
of the same old thing...
Nothing new under the sun
Been so long since we had fun
After all is said and done
It's just a different kind
of the same old thing...
No matter how you mix it,
No matter how you shake it,
This dull romance is killing me
With no way out to break it!
If there's a silver lining, boy,
I'm longing to awake it!
But every time I look at us... (It's)
Just a different kind
of the same old thing!
(Just) a different kind
of the same old thing!
It's the same old,
Just the same old thing!
You go up and I go down
I am lost when you are found
Stuck on mute without a sound
It's just a different kind
of the same old thing...
No matter how you mix it,
No matter how you shake it,
This dull romance is killing me
With no way out to break it!
If there's a silver lining, boy,
I'm longing to awake it!
But every time I look at us... (It's)
Just a different kind
of the same old thing!
(Just) a different kind
of the same old thing!
Never mind the way we try
Never mind the stuff we buy
Never mind the words we say
It doesn't matter anyway!
Never mind the face we wear
Never mind the space we share
Never mind the gifts you bring
It's always just the same old thing!
Never mind the way we try
Never mind the stuff we buy
Never mind the words we say
It doesn't matter anyway!
Never mind the clothes we wear
Never mind the space we share
Never mind the gifts you bring
It's always just the same old thing!
No matter how you mix it,
No matter how you shake it,
This dull romance is killing me
With no way out to break it!
If there's a silver lining, boy,
I'm longing to awake it!
But every time I look at us... (It's)
Just a different kind
of the same old thing!
(Just) a different kind of the same old thing!
Just a different kind
of the same old thing!
(Just) a different kind of the same old thing!
It's the same old,
Just the same old thing!
