Life, it’s ever so strange
  It’s so full of change
  Think that you’ve worked it out then bang
  Right out of the blue
  Something happens to you
  To throw you off course and then you
  Break down, yeah you break down
  Don’t you break down
  Listen to me, because
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  No need to run, no need to hide
  It’ll take you round and round
  Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  Don’t be scared, don’t hide your eyes
  It may feel so real inside
  But don’t forget it’s just a ride
  
  Truth we don’t wanna hear
  It’s too much to take
  Don’t like to feel out of control
  So we make our plans, ten times a day
  And when they don’t go our way
  We break down, yeah we break down
  Don’t you break down
  Listen to me, because
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  No need to run, no need to hide
  It’ll take you round and round
  Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  Don’t be scared, don’t hide your eyes
  It may feel so real inside
  But don’t forget it’s just a ride
  
  Slowly, oh so very slowly
  Except that there’s no getting off
  So live it, just got t go with it
  Cuz this ride’s never gonna stop
  
  Break down, don’t you break down
  No need to break down
  No need at all, because
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  No need to run, no need to hide
  It’ll take you all around
  Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  Don’t be scared, now dry your eyes
  It may feel so real inside
  But don’t forget enjoy the ride
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  No need to run, no need to hide
  It’ll take you all around
  Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down
  
  It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
  Don’t be scared, now dry your eyes
  It may feel so real inside
  But don’t forget enjoy the ride
